SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Authority: 38 U.S.C. Parts 51 and 52.
    Title: VSO Access to VHA Electronic Health Records, VA Form 10-
0400.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0710.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: The information is being used to establish VA Veterans 
Health Information Systems Technology Architecture (VistA) computer 
accounts for Veteran Service Officers (VSO's) who have been granted 
Power of Attorney by veterans who have medical information recorded in 
VA electronic health records. This information is collected under the 
authority of Title 38, CFR parts 51 and 52, Veterans Benefits.
    The information will be used by VHA Office of Health Information 
Governance and/or contractors to create accounts in the VistA computer 
system for VSO's. The information collected is used for a national 
roll-out of a project

[[Page 34927]]

targeted at providing more efficient benefits processing services to 
veterans. The VistA system requires a minimal set of data to create an 
account, which has been reflected on the form. After the initial roll-
out, the burden to the government will be minimal, only involving VSO 
staff turnover.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published at 83 FR 5165 on February 5, 2018, pages 5165 
and 5166.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 17 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 2 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: Yearly.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 500.

    By direction of the Secretary.
Cynthia D. Harvey-Pryor,
Department Clearance Officer, Office of Quality, Privacy and Risk, 
Department of Veterans Affairs.
