9-11 RESPONDERS CHARGED AT NY PRESBYTERIAN......
RECD FROM 9-11 HEALTH WATCH.
If you are a 9/11 responder or survivor enrolled in the World Trade Center Health Program who received care from NY Presbyterian Hospital for a 9/11 certified condition and you had to pay for services out of pocket, you might be able to be reimbursed.
All the major hospitals in the New York Metropolitan area have been allowing easy access to their facilities for injured and ill 9/11 responders and survivors under the World Trade Center Health Program, all-except for New York Presbyterian.
Because of their refusal, it was harder to obtain care from NY Presbyterian and there were many times NY Presbyterian charged co-pays to World Trade Center Health Program members that should not have been charged.
This had been going on for years, until March 2021, when Members of Congress; Carolyn Maloney; (D-NY) Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and Andrew Garbarino (R-NY), wrote to Steve Corwin, the President of New York Presbyterian. Their letter can be viewed here .
President Corwin responded by denying that there was any problem.
“To our knowledge, no patient has ever been turned away or had difficulties accessing our services.”
Finally, almost a year after his denial and after several articles and editorials in the New York Daily News, New York Presbyterian finally admitted that members of the World Trade Center Health Program had difficulty getting services from the Hospital. They have finally agreed to sign a Master Agreement with the World Trade Center Health Program that would allow for easy access for WTC Health Program Members in the future.
You can read all about it on our website here.
That’s not all.
Not only did they agree to sign a Master Agreement, but they also announced that they would reimburse WTC Health Program members who had been improperly charged copays when getting services at New York Presbyterian.
So, if you were a World Trade Center Health Program member treated at New York Presbyterian, and were charged for services, you should call (866) 833-6437 and ask to be reimbursed.
If you call NY Presbyterian and feel they are not being responsive to you or if you still have questions, please contact 911 Health Watch here.

September 11, 2001 - a day we will never forget, events we will never forget, heroes we will never forget. God bless all who perished, all who died from WTC-related illnesses, all who were injured, all who risked their lives to save others that day, all who participated in recovery efforts, all who supported WTC and Pentagon operations, all family members and all who protected their own cities and communities during a time of great fear and risk.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before but in Campbell County, Kentucky, all ladder trucks are given a number ending with 10 (110, 210, 310, etc.), except for Newport which is the 900 department, their ladder truck is 911. Also in the same county when Bellevue and Dayton combined fire departments, they named their department FDBD in honor of FDNY.
Last year, DC Engine 21 honored our site member "Johnny Gage" as well as all who were lost on Sept 11, with a special ceremony at their historic quarters. A flag was flown over quarters and then later presented to him with a picture of the ceremony. Dan was a member of DC Engine 21, an elite DC engine company, before his stellar FDNY career. He also made a scaling ladder rescue serving with DC Engine 21. Dan and his wife, Jean, are both heroes of the September 11, 2001 WTC attack. Never forget 9/11.
This is why 9/11 should be a National Holiday and part of the curriculum taught in schools.

This was/is an outstanding program and it adds new meaning to the phrase "Never Forget".
