Title: ●Implementation of World Trade Center Health Program Requirements for the Addition of New WTC-Related Health Conditions
Abstract: Title I of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 requires that the World Trade Center (WTC) Program Administrator develop regulations to implement portions of the WTC Health Program established within the Department of Health and Human Services. The WTC Health Program, which will be administered in part by the Director of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, will provide medical monitoring and treatment to firefighters and other eligible responders who responded to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York City, Shanksville, PA, and at the Pentagon, and to eligible survivors of the New York City attacks. The proposed rule establishes the processes by which the WTC Program Administrator may add a new condition to the list of WTC-related health conditions through rulemaking, including a process for considering petitions by interested parties to add a new condition.
