Active‑Duty Dental Claim Form Burden
If you are an active‑duty service member receiving dental care outside military clinics, you must (voluntarily) complete the Active‑Duty Dental Program (ADDP) claim form to record dental readiness and submit the claim so reimbursement can be made to the provider. About 75,000 service members will respond, with each respondent submitting up to 4 responses per year (300,000 annual responses total), each taking about 15 minutes on average, for 75,000 annual burden hours.
