## Summary

In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, this notice announces that the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), will submit the collection of information abstracted below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and comment. The PRA submission describes the nature of the information collection and its expected cost and burden, and it includes the actual data collection instrument.

## Effects PRIA read

- Caregivers Must Submit VA Form 10-314: benefit, low. If you are a caregiver seeking reimbursement for bowel and bladder care, you must complete VA Form 10-314 (Request for Payment of Bowel and Bladder Services). The form is used to list the dates and times care was provided and must be submitted monthly to VA to request payment.
- Estimated Time Burden Per Caregiver: cost, low. The VA estimates 37,200 respondents will each submit the form up to 12 times per year, with an average burden of 10 minutes per response. That totals an estimated 6,200 annual burden hours for this information collection.
- VA Reports Lower Expected Responses: benefit, low. The submission is a reinstatement with change and notes there is a decrease in the anticipated annual number of responses and burden hours based on program data since the last PRA clearance. The OMB Control Number for this collection is 2900-0924.
