Under the rules of the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP or VICP), people who are eligible to file injury claims include:
Infants, children and adolescents, or adults who received vaccines covered by the NVICP.
In order to receive compensation, other legal requirements must be met, including:
Adults or children who think they were injured after receiving trivalent influenza vaccines that are covered by the NVICP.
An adult or a child who receives a trivalent influenza vaccine in the U.S. within the applicable time limits is eligible to apply for compensation under the VICP, even if the vaccine administered is licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) exclusively for adults.
Individuals who receive a covered vaccine outside of the U.S. or its trust territories, provided:
When the victim is not of legal adult age, or is not capable of acting on his or her own behalf, a legal representative responsible for handling the victim's affairs is necessary.
For infants, children, and adolescents, that representative is normally the parents or the custodial parent in case of divorce. If not the parents, then the legal guardian is responsible.
If the victim is an adult, a court appointed or recognized legal guardian or representative fills the role.
In case of death, the responsibility transfers to the executor of the victim's estate.
If you think you or a loved one is the victim of a vaccine injury, give us a call right away at (307) 433−8864, or email us at VaccineLaw@RichardGage.net.
Do not delay.
The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program has very strict filing deadlines that must be met. If you miss a deadline, you also lose your right to seek compensation for your injury.
