Title: Guidelines for Determining the Probability of Causation Under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000; Revision of Guidelines for Non-Radiogenic Cancers
Abstract: The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) as a radiogenic cancer under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA). CLL has been considered to be caused by radiation and hence not potentially compensable under EEOICPA. HHS reverses its decision to exclude CLL from such treatment.
