a claimant dies while a claim or appeal

administered by the VA is pending. The

or sponsor. This request for comment is

With respect to the following

functions, including whether the

(2) the accuracy of VHA’s estimate of

Authority: 38 U.S.C., Part I, Chapter 5,
Section 527.
Title: Eating Disorders in Veterans:
Prevalence, Comorbidity, Risk, and
Healthcare Use.
OMB Control Number: 2900—NEW.
Type of Review: New collection.
Abstract: Eating disorders (EDs),
including anorexia nervosa, bulimia
nervosa, and binge eating disorder, are
deadly conditions that can be difficult
to detect and treat. EDs are typically not
screened for or treated within the VA
healthcare system, possibly because
many people believe that since Veterans
are mostly male, they are not affected by
these disorders. The Department of
Defense recently put out a call for grants
to investigate EDs in military service
members and Veterans, and our
proposal is currently under review. Our
proposal also aligns with VA Health
Services Research & Development
funding Priority F (Women’s Health) for
Investigator-Initiated Research, which
emphasizes investigating the unique
needs of female Veterans. EDs are an
issue for male and female Veterans;

however, they disproportionately

Women Veterans Task Force to resolve
gaps in serving women Veterans.

collection is found under 38 U.S.C., Part
I, Chapter 5, Section 527 that authorizes
the collection of data that will allow
measurement and evaluation of the
Department of Veterans Affairs
Programs, the goal of which is improved
health care for Veterans.
