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) is proposing to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) as a radiogenic cancer under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA). Under current guidelines (42 CFR 81), CLL is not considered to be caused by radiation and hence is currently not potentially compensable under EEOICPA. HHS proposes to reverse its decision to exclude CLL from such treatment.
