    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
to support the Military OneSource Case Management System contract 
mandated Quality Control Plan (QCP) which requires a process to capture 
participant quality satisfaction feedback. Key quality factors include 
but are not limited to appropriateness, effectiveness, successful 
outcomes and any or all of the dimensions of quality such as 
accessibility, availability, efficiency, continuity, safety, timeliness 
and respectfulness. Council on Accreditation (COA) or URAC guidance for 
sample size and confidence levels shall be followed at a minimum.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households; Federal Government.
    Annual Burden Hours: 1,000.
    Number of Respondents: 10,000.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Average Burden per Response: 6 minutes.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondents are military service members and their families who 
accessed Military OneSource for support for an inquiry or issue and 
agreed to provide satisfaction feedback. Respondent feedback is 
captured using two methods: An outreach call or via an email containing 
a link to the feedback Web site. When outreach calls are made, 
respondents are interviewed and a staff person enters those responses 
into a feedback form. Respondents may also elect to complete feedback 
via an electronic form, which is emailed to the respondent. All 
respondents who contact Military OneSource are asked to provide 
feedback about their Military OneSource experience, though on average 
only about 1-2% of respondents provide feedback.
