Abstract: The information collection is necessary to obtain non-active duty TRICARE beneficiary’s personal information needed to: (1) complete his/her enrollment into the “new” TRICARE Select health plan option as created by the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017, (2) dis-enroll a beneficiary, or (3) change the beneficiary’s enrollment (e.g., address, add a dependent, report other health insurance. This information is required to ensure the beneficiary’s benefits and claims are administered based on their plan of choice.

Emergency Justfication: Complying with the normal clearance procedures is likely to delay or disrupt the collection of information, and could have a negative impact on our service members, and compliance with new statute requirements, effective as of January 1, 2018. The National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2017 has mandated that two key aspects of the TRICARE system, TRICARE Extra and TRICARE Standard, which will be terminated as of December 31, 2017, are to be replaced by TRICARE Select. This information collection is necessary to obtain non-active duty TRICARE beneficiary’s personal information needed to complete his/her enrollment into the “new” TRICARE Select health plan option as created by the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017, dis-enroll a beneficiary, or change the beneficiary’s enrollment. This information is required to ensure the beneficiary’s benefits and claims are administered based on their plan of choice. The information collection is essential to the mission of the Department.
