Title: Barriers to Health Care for Women Veterans Survey.
OMB Control Number: 2900-0795.
Type of Review: Reinstatement of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: Legal authority for this data collection is found in
Public Law 116-315, Sec. 5402--``Study of Barriers for Women Veterans
to Receipt of Health Care from Department of Veterans Affairs,'' which
requires VA to conduct an independent comprehensive study of the
barriers to the provision of health care for women Veterans. Per Sec.
5402, this current study is to build on previous studies ``National
Survey of Women Veterans in Fiscal Year 2007-2008'' and ``Study of
Barriers for Women Veterans to VA Health Care 2015.'' The aim of the
proposed survey is to better understand barriers women Veterans face
accessing VA care, the comprehensiveness of care, and progress made in
reducing barriers to VA healthcare for women Veterans since the
previous study conducted in 2015. The data collected will allow VA to
plan and provide better health care for women Veterans and to support
reports to Congress about the status of women Veterans' health care.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 5,400 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 45 minutes.
Frequency of Response: One time.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 7,200.
By direction of the Secretary:
Maribel Aponte,
