(2) Severely and permanently disabled. An innocent victim is severely and permanently disabled when a doctor of medicine or osteopathy, licensed to practice in a state, has determined that such person is unable to engage in any occupation for remuneration or profit due to a physical or mental impairment. Such physical or mental impairment shall have been sustained in the impact area as a direct result of the September 11, 2001 attack on the United States of America or while engaged in the subsequent rescue and recovery efforts.
(3) Physical or mental impairment. For purposes of this section, physical or mental impairment is an impairment resulting from anatomical, physiological or psychological abnormality which is demonstrable by medically acceptable clinical and laboratory diagnostic techniques and which did not exist prior to September 11, 2001 unless said impairment was worsened as a direct result of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and now prevents the victim from engaging in any occupation for remuneration or profit.
