SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: TRICARE Select Enrollment, 
Disenrollment, and Change Form; DD Form 3043; OMB Control Number 0720-
0061.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Number of Respondents: 99,300.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 99,300.
    Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 24,825.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to obtain each non-active duty TRICARE beneficiary's personal 
information needed to: (1) Complete his/her enrollment into the TRICARE 
Select health plan option, (2) dis-enroll a beneficiary, or (3) change 
a beneficiary's enrollment information (e.g., address, add a dependent, 
report other health insurance). This information is required to ensure 
the beneficiary's TRICARE benefits and claims are administered based on 
their TRICARE plan of choice. Without this new enrollment form, each 
non-active duty TRICARE beneficiary is automatically defaulted into 
direct care, limiting their health care options to military hospitals 
and clinics. These beneficiaries would have no TRICARE coverage when 
using the TRICARE network of providers for services not available at 
their local military hospital or clinic.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Cortney Higgins.
