SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Diagnosis Related Groups 
(DRG) Reimbursement; OMB Control Number 0720-0017.
    Type of Request: Reinstatement.
    Number of Respondents: 5,600.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 5,600.
    Average Burden per Response: 1 hour.
    Annual Burden Hours: 5,600.
    Needs and Uses: The DoD Authorization Act, 1984, Public Law 98-94 
amended Title 10, section 1079(j)(2)(A) of the United States Code 
provided the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed 
Services (CHAMPUS) with the statutory authority to reimburse 
institutional providers based on diagnosis-related groups (DRGs). The 
TRICARE/CHAMPUS DRG-based payment system is modeled on the Medicare 
Prospective Payment System and was implemented on October 1, 1987. The 
TRICARE/CHAMPUS DRG-based payments apply only to hospital's operating 
costs and do not include any amounts for hospitals' capital or direct 
medical education costs. Any hospital subject to the DRG-based payment 
system, except for children's hospitals (whose capital and direct 
medical education costs are incorporated in the children's hospital 
differential), who want to be reimbursed for allowed capital and direct 
medical education costs must submit a request for payment to the 
TRICARE/CHAMPUS contractor. The request allows TRICARE to collect the 
information necessary to properly reimburse hospitals for its share of 
these costs.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: As required.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    DoD Clearance Officer: Mr. Reginald Lucas.

    Dated: September 19, 2025.

Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
