The Defense Health Agency, under the Department of Defense, is seeking public comments on a proposed information collection related to the TRICARE Plus Enrollment/Disenrollment Application. This collection is necessary to help identify eligible beneficiaries for the TRICARE Plus Health Plan and requires interested individuals to provide some basic information. The agency is inviting feedback on the necessity and impact of this information collection, aiming to streamline the process and lessen the respondents' burden. Comments will be considered until April 30, 2021, and should be submitted electronically.

The Department of Defense (DoD) has submitted a proposal to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a 30-day review concerning the collection of information through a form known as TRICARE DoD/CHAMPUS Medical Claim Patient's Request for Medical Payment (DD Form 2642). This form is used by beneficiaries to request reimbursement for their medical expenses under the TRICARE program. The information gathered helps determine the eligibility of beneficiaries, assess other health insurance liabilities, confirm that care was received, and facilitate payment for medical services. Public comments on the proposal are encouraged and must be submitted by January 27, 2025.
