    Title: Survey of Healthcare Experiences of Patients (SHEP)--Dental 
Care Patient Satisfaction Survey, VA Form 10-10070.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0764.
    Type of Review: Reinstatement of a previously approved collection.
    Abstract: The mission of the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) 
is to provide high quality medical and dental care to eligible 
veterans. Executive Order 12862, dated September 11, 1993, calls for 
the establishment and implementation of customer service standards, and 
for agencies to ``survey customers to determine the kind and quality of 
services they want and their level of satisfaction with current 
services.''
    The overall purpose of the Dental Care Patient Satisfaction Survey 
is to systematically obtain information from patients, which can be 
used to identify problems or complaints that need attention and to 
improve the quality of dental health care services. Information 
obtained from this dental survey will be made readily available to VA 
Central Office (VACO), Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN), VHA 
field staff, and stakeholders as part of the Network Performance Report 
and via the VA Intranet. This data will be used to demonstrate that VA 
is providing timely, high quality health care services to patients.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published at 86 FR 169 on September 3, 2021, pages 
49599 and 49600.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 12,600 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 15 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: Once annually.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 50,400.

    By direction of the Secretary.
