Summary

Expands who can certify mental-health conditions for the World Trade Center Health Program. It would also reset long-range funding rules and require a congressional report on program costs and projections.

Show full summary
  • Responders and survivors: Initial mental-health evaluations and certifications could be done by licensed mental health providers, not only physicians. The window to add responder conditions would move from 90 days to 180 days, and deceased individuals would be excluded from enrollee counts.
  • Providers and the Nationwide Network: The WTC Program Administrator would be the credentialing authority and must issue regulations within 180 days defining which categories of licensed mental health providers may perform evaluations.
  • Program funding and oversight: Annual funding would follow a formula that applies about a 7 percent growth factor to the prior year and adjusts for enrollee changes. The Secretary must submit a report within three years projecting budget needs and recommending formula changes to cover future costs.

Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

4 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.

New long-term funding for 9/11 health

If enacted, annual WTC Health Program funding for 2026 through 2090 would follow a set formula. Each year would start with last year’s amount, multiplied by 1.07, and adjusted by the change in July 1 enrollee counts. For 2026, funding would be at least last year’s spending plus 25%, or the pre-enactment amount, whichever is larger. For 2025, the pre-enactment rules would apply. The bill would also base some baselines on the amount actually spent in the prior year, and leftover funds would return to the Treasury under federal closing rules.

More mental health provider options for 9/11 care

If enacted, you could get initial mental health evaluations from licensed mental health providers, not just doctors. The WTC Program Administrator would set which provider types qualify in rules due within 180 days after enactment. Panels that review mental health cases could include those qualified providers. This could make it easier and faster to get care and program decisions.

Longer wait to add responder conditions

If enacted, the Administrator would have 180 days, not 90 days, to add new responder health conditions. This could delay when newly recognized conditions become eligible for program decisions and care. The change would apply to two deadline references in current law.

New rules for provider credentials and counts

If enacted, the WTC Program Administrator would be the credentialing authority for the nationwide provider network. The bill would also stop counting people known to be deceased in enrollee and certified-eligible survivor tallies. This could change program reports and any formulas that use those counts.
