Title: HEALTH INSURANCE CLAIM FORM
Type of Information Collection: Revision of a currently approved collection	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 01/17/1992
	Date Received in OIRA: 11/26/1991
Terms of Clearance: Approved for use through 6/93 under the following conditions. CHAMPUS will work with HCFA to determine the feasibility of revising the form immediately to display OMB control numbers assigned to HCFA, DOD and Labor. CHAMPUS will work with the other agencies to assure that the next requests for OMB approval indicate placement of all applicable OMB control numbers, that the burden disclosure notice indicates average burden per response for all agencies and directs public comments to an agency address to be contained within the agency-specific instructions. The primary purpose of this form is to reduce administrative burden on providers, suppliers, et. al. It may become apparent in implementation that the costs of standardizing the systems of states, contractors, and private insurers may exceed these administrative savings. OMB encourages all participating agencies to closely monitor implementation of the form and public comment over the next year and to critically reevaluate the cost effectiveness of this standardization approach prior to resubmission for continued OMB approval.
