Expands purpose of Traumatic Brain Injury Fund to support transportation costs incurred by eligible individuals in accessing support group meetings.
This bill amends New Jersey's Traumatic Brain Injury Fund to cover transportation costs for eligible individuals attending support group meetings. It directly affects New Jersey residents with traumatic brain injuries who rely on the fund for post-acute care when other resources are unavailable. The key change adds "transportation services to access support group meetings" to the fund's eligible uses, defining such meetings as gatherings for information, perspective, and well-being related to their injuries. The fund continues to cover medical appointments, treatment, and vocational services under existing rules, with the same $100,000 lifetime limit per person. This is a targeted expansion of existing transportation coverage, not a new program.
