SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521.
Title: Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers
(PCAFC) (VA Form 10-10CG).
OMB Control Number: 2900-0768.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: Authority for this information collection is found in
Public Law (Pub. L.) 111-163, Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health
Services Act of 2010, as amended in title 38 United States Code chapter
17 by adding a new section, 1720G, ``Assistance and Support Services
for Caregivers.'' Section 1720G required the Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) to develop a Program of Comprehensive Assistance for
Family Caregivers and Support Services. Under the law, Primary Family
Caregivers may be eligible to receive a stipend, access to health care
coverage, mental health counseling, comprehensive caregiver education
and training, and expanded respite services. Caregivers also may be
eligible for travel benefits when they accompany the Veteran for care
or attending training.
In order to administer these benefits to caregivers, it is
necessary that the VA receive information about the nature of benefit
being sought and the persons who will be serving as caregivers and
receiving benefits. This information is collected with VA Form 10-10CG,
which is currently approved under Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
Control Number 2900-0768. VA requests a three-year renewal of the PRA
clearance for 10-10CG from OMB to continue with the collection of this
information, which is necessary to administer VA's Program of
Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC).
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
