Question
3.6 I was diagnosed with Uterine Cancer before it was added to the WTC Health Program’s list of covered cancer conditions, and I paid out-of-pocket medical expenses related to treatment for the cancer. Will the VCF reimburse me for these medical expenses?
Answer

Yes, as long as you meet the VCF requirements for reimbursement of these expenses.  You may claim reimbursement from the VCF if you paid out-of-pocket expenses related to your Uterine Cancer before the date that the WTC Health Program certified the condition for treatment.  The VCF has specific requirements for claiming medical expense reimbursement.  See FAQ 6.5 for further details.
