Review (HEAR) Survey 2.X.

Needs and Uses: The objective of this

work is to design and implement the

HEAR 2.X. The HEAR is a tool that will

help to define the health status of a

population. The survey is a self-reported

health assessment tool designed to

provide information regarding: (1) An

individual’s health risk factors and

preventive care needs. These are

reported to both the individual and their

primary care manager; (2) which

individuals are likely to use high levels

of medical resources; and, (3) risk

factors, care levels, and healthcare

utilization for use in strategic planning

for population health management and

resource utilization at the Office of the

Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health

Affairs), TRICARE Management

Activity, Regional, Major Command,

Military Treatment Facility, and

provider level healthcare. In addition,

the HEAR 2.X will provide information

in support of Healthy People 2010 and

other population health programs.

These data will provide needed

information to better plan, deliver, and

evaluate health care provided in the

Military Health System.

Affected Public: Individual

households.

Annual Burden Hours: 703,427.71

hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Summary of Information Collection

This request encompasses all

activities required to develop and

implement the HEAR 2.X survey. The

HEAR is a unified approach to assess

health and fitness for active duty and

other DoD health care beneficiaries. The

information is primarily used by health

care personnel to plan health care

delivery needs and to: (1) Identify

patients requiring clinical preventive

care (e.g., cholesterol screening,

mammography, prostate exam, etc.); (2)

target individuals who could benefit

from counseling services associated

with high risk behaviors (e.g., excessive

alcohol consumption, smoking, drinking

and driving, etc.); (3) categorize patients

into one of three primary care levels

according to the complexity and

intensity of care required; (4) predict

which patients will be high users of

health care resources; (5) empower

individuals to take responsibility for

their own health; and, (6) assess the

health status of the population so

patients, providers, resource managers,

commanders, and health planners at all

levels can work towards improving

health and managing care.
