SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Application for a Review by
the Physical Disability Board of Review; DD Form 294; OMB Control
Number 0704-0453.
Type of Request: Regular.
Number of Respondents: 240.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 240.
Average Burden per Response: 45 minutes.
Annual Burden Hours: 180 hours.
Needs and Uses: The Fiscal Year 2008 National Defense Authorization
Act amended Title 10, United States Code by adding Section 1554a. This
provision of law directs the Secretary of Defense to establish a panel
to review the disability determinations of individuals who were
separated from the armed forces during the period beginning September
11, 2001 and ending on December 31, 2009 due to unfitness for duty due
to a medical condition with a disability rating of 20 percent disabled
or less; and were found to be not eligible for retirement. On June 27,
2008, the Department of Defense published DODI 6040.44, which provides
the guidance for this process.
The DD Form 294 is the means by which former Service members that
were medically separated due to a medical condition with a disability
rating of 20 percent or less can request a review of their combined
disability rating. Service members are responding to the information
collection to ensure they receive an accurate and fair review of their
disability rating. The DD Form 294, ``Application for Review by the
Physical Disability Board of Review (PDBR) of the Rating Awarded
Accompanying a Medical Separation from the Armed Forces of the United
States'' is designed to appropriately collect the information necessary
to retrieve the medical separation and the Department of Veterans
Affairs records and correct military personnel and pay records.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
