The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program
01/29/2008
The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program was established through the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (Public Law No. 99-660). It establishes the Vaccine Program as a no-fault compensation scheme whereby persons allegedly suffering injury or death as a result of the administration of certain compulsory childhood vaccines may petition the federal government for monetary damages. Congress intended that the Vaccine Program provide individuals a swift, flexible, and less adversarial alternative to the often costly and lengthy civil arena of traditional tort litigation. All vaccine claims are managed and adjudicated by the congressionally-created Office of Special Masters, which currently consists of one chief special master and seven associate special masters who are appointed to serve for four year terms.To learn more about this program please visit the website of the United States Court of Federal Claims at
