Vaccine Injury Compensation Program

The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) is a federal program that provides compensation to individuals who have suffered vaccine-related injuries or illnesses. The VICP was established to ensure that individuals who are injured by vaccines can receive compensation without the need for lengthy and costly litigation.

Although vaccines save lives by preventing disease and most people who receive a vaccine don’t suffer from serious problems, some people do have injuries and reactions caused by vaccines. If this includes you or a loved one, please contact Phillips Law Group to discuss your options.

Eligible Vaccine Injury Compensation Program Cases

Vaccine-related injuries and illnesses can occur due to various factors, including adverse reactions to vaccine components or administration errors. The VICP provides compensation to individuals who have suffered vaccine-related injuries or illnesses, including but not limited to Guillain-Barré Syndrome, shoulder injuries related to vaccine administration (SIRVA), and encephalopathy.

According to the United States Health Resources and Services Administration, “the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) may provide financial compensation to individuals who file a petition and are found to have been injured by a VICP-covered vaccine. Even in cases in which such a finding is not made, petitioners may receive compensation…”

Eligibility for VICP Compensation

To be eligible for compensation under the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, individuals must meet certain criteria:

  • Must have received a covered vaccine and suffered an injury or illness listed on the VICP’s Vaccine Injury Table within a specified time frame after vaccination
  • Must have experienced the injury or illness for a certain duration as specified by the VICP
  • Must file a petition with the VICP within the statutory time limits
