Pharmacy Program; OMB Control Number 0720-0032.
    Needs and Uses: The Department of Defense (DoD) is extending the 
information collection requirements under current OMB Control Number 
0720-0032. Specifically, under the collection of information, 
pharmaceutical manufacturers will base refund calculation reporting 
requirements on the difference between the average non-Federal price of 
the drug sold by the pharmaceutical manufacturer to wholesalers, as 
represented by the most recent annual non-Federal average manufacturing 
prices (non-FAMP) (reported to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)) 
and the corresponding Federal Ceiling Price (FCP) or, in the discretion 
of the pharmaceutical manufacturer, the difference between the FCP and 
direct commercial contract sales prices specifically attributable to 
the reported TRICARE paid pharmaceuticals determined for each 
applicable National Drug Code (NDC) listing, per Refund Procedures 
outlined in CFR 199.21. DoD will use the reporting and audit 
capabilities of the Pharmacy Data Transaction Service (PDTS) to 
validate refunds owed to the Government. In Fiscal Year (FY) 15, the 
government received approximately $1.1 billion from pharmaceutical 
manufacturers as a result of this program/refund calculation reporting 
requirements.
    Affected Public: Business or other for profit; Not-for-profit 
institutions
    Annual Burden Hours: 9,600.
    Number of Respondents: 300.
    Responses per Respondent: 4.
    Annual Responses: 1200.
    Average Burden per Response: 8 hours.
    Frequency: Quarterly.
    10 United States Code (U.S.C.) 1074g(f) makes drugs provided to 
eligible covered beneficiaries through the TRICARE Retail Pharmacy 
Program subject to the pricing standards of the Veterans Health Care 
Act. Under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 1074g(h), 32 Code of Federal 
Regulation (CFR) 199.21(q)(3) requires information collection to 
implement 10 U.S.C. 1074g(f). The DoD is extending the information 
collection control number 0720-0032. Specifically, under the collection 
of information, pharmaceutical manufacturers will base refund 
calculation reporting requirements on the difference between the 
average non-Federal price of the drug sold by the pharmaceutical 
manufacturer to wholesalers, as represented by the most recent annual 
non-FAMP (reported to the VA) and the corresponding FCP or, in the 
discretion of the pharmaceutical manufacturer, the difference between 
the FCP and direct commercial contract sales prices specifically 
attributable to the reported TRICARE paid pharmaceuticals determined 
for each applicable NDC listing, per Refund Procedures outlined in CFR 
199.21. The DoD will use the reporting and audit capabilities of the 
PDTS to validate refunds owed to the Government.
