A new benefit program is being offered for people still struggling with the effects of the World Trade Center attack, the New York City Health Department said Monday.
The program will reimburse out-of-pocket costs for mental health or substance-use treatment through a claims process similar to any insurance benefit, the department said.
The American Red Cross offered a similar program to some people affected by the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks who enrolled before the end of 2006. The Health Department is making the new program retroactive to Jan. 2, 2007, to provide continuity of coverage.
