Administration says released records will help New Yorkers secure health care
Summary
The agency official said the documents will help New Yorkers access health care related to exposures after the Sept. 11 attacks and that staged releases will continue for 12 months; the transcript includes no operational plan for how records will be linked to health services.
An agency official said the published records are intended to help New Yorkers access health care tied to exposures from the Sept. 11 attacks and that the portal is the first step in that effort.
"And they will help New Yorkers access the health care they need," the agency official said. The official tied the transparency initiative to the 25th anniversary of the attacks and described the effort as correcting past failures to provide clarity.
The transcript records the administrations stated intent but contains no detail about how individuals will use the portal to obtain medical services, whether records will be linked to benefits programs, or which agencies will assist residents searching the archive. The official said further documents will be posted over the next 12 months but did not provide an operational timeline for health-care navigation or referrals.
