Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Adjustments: The overall burden hours changed due to an increase in the number of respondents for forms 10-10d and forms 10-7959a, c, d and e. For the change reflected in the number of responses from the last submission, for 10-7959c (CHAMPVA OHI Form): The increase in number from the previous submission is due to the growth of the program over the past three years, increased submission of claims forms, and increased attention to insurance status. Program change:VA Form 10-7959e (previously approved under 2900-0578), and has been incorporated into this 2900-0219 due to the fact that it is a beneficiary claims form that was misinterpreted for its use in provider billing. With a correction in this error, VA Form 10-7959e will only be submitted by the beneficiary for miscellaneous claims. The number of responses was revised in number (see chart on #12). The previous submission indicated 15,000 responses. Upon review it was determined that a more accurate annual usage for this form is no more than approximately 3,000 responses from approximately 250 respondents.
