The VCF released its tenth Annual Report, which details how the VCF team successfully navigated challenges in addition to those created by COVID-19,  maintained steady productivity, and completed another successful year in service to the 9/11 community, awarding nearly $1.5 billion, in 2021.

In commemoration of the 20^th anniversary of 9/11, the report features an array of images of memorials and monuments created around the world to honor those whose lives were forever impacted by the events of September 11, 2001.

It is best to wait to file your claim until you have been certified by the WTC Health Program. If you submit your claim without first being certified, the VCF will place your claim in Inactive status and it will remain in that status and will not be reviewed until you submit your certification letter.

Es preferible esperar para presentar su reclamación hasta que haya obtenido la certificación del Programa de Salud del WTC, siempre y cuando usted haya registrado su reclamación oportunamente. Si usted presenta su reclamación sin haber obtenido primero la certificación, el VCF pondrá su reclamación en estado inactivo y permanecerá en dicho estatus y no la revisaremos hasta que usted nos provea con su carta de certificación.

Jeśli zarejestrowali Państwo swój wniosek w odpowiednim terminie, najlepiej jest poczekać ze złożeniem wniosku aż do uzyskania kwalifikacji do objęcia leczeniem z Programu Zdrowia WTC.  W przypadku złożenia wniosku przed uzyskaniem kwalifikacji, VCF ustawi stan wniosku jako „nieaktywny” i wniosek nie zostanie rozpatrzony aż do czasu złożenia pisma potwierdzającego kwalifikację do objęcia leczeniem.

最好等到获得WTC健康项目的认证再提出索赔。如果您在未先获得认证的情况下提交索赔，那么VCF会将您的索赔置于“待用”状态，并一直保持该状态，直到您提交认证信函后您的索赔才会被审核。

In order to request an exception to the Private Physician criteria, you must show that you will suffer significant hardship in having your condition evaluated and certified for treatment by the WTC Health Program, either in the New York City metropolitan area or through the Nationwide Provider Network.
