Short Statement:
VA Form 10-10434e is now required to provide a communication tool for secondary authorization requests from VA Community providers directly to VA staff. This need presented with the implementation of VA Provider Agreement and Alaska Scheduling implementation, both of which now necessitate communication directly between community provider and VA staff. This form was not included in the original information collection as there was not a need for it at that time. Because of this additional form, there has been a burden increase.
