SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Women's Reproductive Health 
Care Provider Survey (WRHCPS); OMB Control Number 0720-WRHS.
    Type of Request: New.
    Number of Respondents: 2,129.
    Responses per respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 2,129.
    Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 710.
    Needs and Uses: Health care provider knowledge, beliefs, and 
practices may have an impact on active-duty service women's (ADSW) 
access to contraception and overall reproductive health. The proposed 
survey is devised to be a sufficiently large and representative sample 
of the diverse professionals who provide reproductive and contraceptive 
care to ADSW at health care visits (e.g., readiness visits, pre-
deployment, and during deployment). The survey will be designed to 
capture provider self-reported beliefs, clinical knowledge on 
reproductive health care (including contraceptive counseling) and 
prescribing and providing contraception care for and during deployment. 
Data and analysis from the survey will enable DoD to evaluate, enhance, 
and where needed, improve reproductive services delivery and 
educational interventions; provide a strong basis for planning policy 
and services related to ADSWs reproductive and contraceptive health; 
and provide data, programs, and details necessary for replication and 
peer review. In addition, the proposed one-time survey meets a 
Congressional mandate and serves as an appropriate follow-up to the 
WRHS by determining whether identified gaps in contraceptive access are 
the result of provider knowledge and attitudes. The 116-48 SASC Report 
for FY2020 required DoD to conduct a survey to better understand 
provider knowledge and beliefs related to provision of contraceptives 
to ADSW. The target population of the survey includes uniformed (active 
component only) and civilian MHS personnel.
    Affected Public: Federal government employees.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Mr. Matt Eliseo.
