SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Surveys on Viability of 

TRICARE Standard and TRICARE Extra; 

OMB Control Number 0720–0031. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

collection requirement is necessary to 

determine how many providers are 

aware of the TRICARE health benefits 

program, and specifically accept new 

TRICARE Standard patients in each 

market area. Surveys will be conducted 

in a number of locations in the United 

States each fiscal year from 2012 to 

2015. The locations surveyed will 

include areas where the TRICARE Prime 

benefit is offered (known as TRICARE 

PRIME Service Areas) and geographic 

areas where TRICARE Prime is not 

offered. These congressionally 

mandated surveys of civilian health care 

providers and beneficiaries who use 

TRICARE will be completed in 

TRICARE market areas within the 

United States. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Annual Burden Hours: 4,167. 

Number of Respondents: 50,000. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Average Burden per Response: 5 

minutes. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Under the authority of the Office of 

the Assistant Secretary of Defense 

(Health Affairs), (OASD(HA)), Defense 

Health Agency (DHA) will continue to 

evaluate DoD’s TRICARE Standard 

health care option. This evaluation 

includes collecting and analyzing 

survey-based data that are necessary to 

meet the requirements outlined 

originally in Section 711, National 

Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for 

Fiscal Year (FY) 2008, Public Law 110– 

181 and reaffirmed in Section 721, 

National Defense Authorization Act 

(NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2012,

Public Law 112–81. The Department 

will extend the evaluation consistent 

with proposed legislation extending the 

period from 2015 to 2018. 

Activities include the collection and 

analyses of data obtained confidentially 

from civilian physicians (M.D.s & D.O.s) 

and non-physician behavioral health 

providers (to include clinical 

psychologists, clinical social workers 

and other TRICARE authorized 

behavioral health providers) within U.S. 

geographic areas. Specifically, mail 

surveys with telephone follow-up of 

civilian providers will be conducted in 

the TRICARE market areas to determine 

how many health care providers are 

accepting new patients under TRICARE 

Standard in each market area. The 

surveys will be conducted in several 

TRICARE geographic areas in the United 

States each fiscal year from fiscal year 

2012 through and including fiscal year 

2016 to complete the 2015 survey. 

Representatives of TRICARE 

beneficiaries and selected provider 

groups will be consulted to identify 

potential locations. In addition, Section 

721 of the FY 2012 National Defense 

Authorization Act (NDAA) requires the 

Department to conduct annual surveys 

of beneficiary access experience and the 

availability to access civilian providers 

under TRICARE Standard and Extra 

program through the same period. These 

issues address the interests of Congress 

in reconciliation of responses of 

providers and beneficiaries who use 

TRICARE. Surveys of civilian health 

care providers (M.D.s, D.O.s and nonphysician behavioral health providers) 

and beneficiaries eligible for TRICARE 

Standard/Extra care will be conducted 

in areas where TRICARE Prime is 

offered and where it is not offered each 

year. The objective of this effort is to 

determine if TRICARE beneficiaries 

have difficulty in finding health care 

providers willing to provide services 

under Standard or Extra, and the extent 

to which providers in the area 

participate in Standard/Extra.
