What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "9/11 Responder and Survivor Health Funding Correction Act of 2025," aims to amend the Public Health Service Act regarding the World Trade Center Health Program. It introduces flexibility by allowing licensed mental health providers, rather than just physicians, to conduct evaluations and make determinations for mental health conditions. The legislation also updates the criteria for credentialing healthcare providers and clarifies how enrollment counts are calculated by excluding deceased individuals. Additionally, it extends the time periods for adding health conditions to the list for responders. Finally, it adjusts the funding formulas and provides for a required budget assessment report from the Secretary of Health and Human Services.
