    Average Burden per Response: 5 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 1,667.
    Needs and Uses: As mandated by Congress, the information collection 
requirement is necessary to determine how many providers are aware of 
the TRICARE health benefits program, and specifically accept new 
TRICARE Select patients in each market area. The original requirement 
is outlined in Section 711 Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 National Defense 
Authorization Act (NDAA) (Pub. L. 110-181) and was reaffirmed in 
Section 721 FY12 NDAA (Pub. L. 112-81). Section 712 of FY15 NDAA 
extended the requirement to conduct the survey from 2017 through 2020. 
Surveys of civilian physician and non-physician behavioral health care 
providers will be conducted in a number of locations in the United 
States each year. Respondents include civilian physicians (M.D.s & 
D.O.s) and non-physician behavioral health providers (clinical 
psychologists, clinical social workers and other TRICARE authorized 
behavioral health providers). The locations surveyed will include areas 
where the TRICARE Prime benefit is offered (known as TRICARE PRIME 
Service Areas) and geographic areas where TRICARE Prime is not offered. 
Respondents will be contacted by mail with a telephone follow-up to 
complete the survey.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Cortney Higgins.
