The survey should, at a minimum, include the following: i. the overseas locations that have a relatively high number of beneficiaries with concerns about their access to health care. ii. the clinical specialties in overseas locations that beneficiaries have the greatest difficulty accessing. iii. the reasons beneficiaries have difficulties obtaining access to health care in each location and for each clinical specialty.
