What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill changes how the World Trade Center Health Program gets its funding and who can do certain medical evaluations. The program provides health care to people who responded to or survived the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Currently, the program's yearly funding is based on how much money Congress gave it the year before, plus an adjustment for inflation. The bill creates a new funding formula that would instead be based on how many people are enrolled in the program each year. The bill also allows licensed mental health providers to do initial health evaluations for mental health conditions to help determine if someone qualifies for the program.
