CDC Reimbursed Contractors for Some Unallowable World Trade Center Health Program Administrative Costs

The World Trade Center Health Program (WTCHP) was established in January 2011 by the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 (Zadroga Act). The WTCHP is administered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). CDC incurred WTCHP administrative costs by contracting with various entities that provide WTCHP services, including program management, member enrollment, claims processing, data center administration, privacy and security policy services, and outreach.
