Price v. HHS - other (2022)

This case involves a petitioner who received a vaccine and subsequently experienced an injury. While the respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, denied that the petitioner's current condition was a sequela of a vaccine-related injury, both parties agreed to settle the case.

The parties entered into a stipulation on February 22, 2022, agreeing that the issues could be resolved through a settlement and that the Petitioner should be awarded compensation. The Special Master reviewed the stipulation and found it to be reasonable, adopting it as the decision in the case.

The stipulation awarded the Petitioner a lump sum of $280,000.00 as compensation for all available damages under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. The Special Master approved this award and directed the Clerk of the Court to enter judgment accordingly, unless a motion for review was filed.
