The Health Care Survey of DoD Beneficiaries (HCSDB) is the only population-based Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) Health Plan Survey administered to a statistically representative, world-wide sample of all eligible DoD beneficiaries by the Defense Health Agency (DHA). The HCSDB is a population-based survey. As such, the HCSDB is the only survey able to measure access to care and other metrics for beneficiaries who may not be using the TRICARE health system due to barriers to care they encounter. This information collection, which began in 2008, continues to be of critical importance to DHA and Congress in assessing Military Health System (MHS) and Managed Care Support Contractor performance by allowing for trending by various beneficiary categories over time.
The latest form for The Health Care Survey of DoD Beneficiaries (HCSDB) expires 2027-05-31 and is listed under ICR 202401-0720-001.
