What is the Black Lung Benefits Act? The federal government established the Black Lung Benefits Act to assist coal miners who have developed pneumoconiosis, known as Black Lung Disease. The act provides monthly payments and medical benefits to coal miners who are totally disabled by the disease.
Miners still get the disease, and the most severe form, progressive massive fibrosis, is on the rise in Appalachia. Nearly 76,000 miners have died from black lung disease since 1969, the year coal mine dust regulations were put in place. And it is still difficult to receive benefits. At the Appalachia Citizensâ Law Center, we will continue to confront these challenges, and fight for our minersâ health and safety.
