The official number of responses has increased. However, this is only an administrative change: The FAA has divided Form 8700-2 into 2 new ICs (pilot burden and physician burden).
In the previous submission, for Form 8700-2, the pilot input and the physician input were counted as a single response, amounting to 12,500 responses per year. In this submission, pilot burden and physician burden are separated. Thus, the total number of responses has increased by 12,500 because we are arranging the data in a clearer way.
