SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Safety Culture, Operational
reliability, Resilience/burnout, and Engagement (SCORE<SUP>TM</SUP>)
Survey; OMB Control Number 0720-SCOR.
Needs and Uses: The 2001 National Defense Authorization Act
addresses patient safety in military and veteran's healthcare and
requires an examination of systemic factors which lead to medical
error. The SCORE<SUP>TM</SUP> Survey, a validated commercial assessment
tool for patient safety that engages all levels of staff from executive
leaders to frontline teams, is a response to this legislation. Defense
Health Network National Capital Region (DHN NCR) uses results from the
SCORE<SUP>TM</SUP> to meet requirements for Leapfrog, a nonprofit
advocate of transparency and quality in healthcare which evaluates
military facilities. Furthermore, SCORE<SUP>TM</SUP> provides the
granular, customized data necessary for true culture change at echelon
or process for driving cultural change with the survey results.
Required post-survey debriefings drive team engagement: in 2020 and
2021 alone, DHN NCR SCORE<SUP>TM</SUP> debriefs generated over 1,000
frontline action plans which have driven Fiscal Year 2024 year-over-
year increases in improvement readiness and local leadership
engagement. Additionally, since SCORE<SUP>TM</SUP> is repeated every
12-24 months, it meets the highest-level Leapfrog requirements and have
helped our largest facilities earn Leapfrog ``A'' designation.
Affected Public: Federal Government, Individuals, or Households.
Annual Burden Hours: 16,333.
Number of Respondents: 98,000.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 98,000.
Average Burden per Response: 10 minutes.
