The respondent conceded entitlement, agreeing that Mr. Romo-Villanueva met the criteria for a Table injury and suffered residual effects of GBS for more than six months. A ruling on entitlement was issued on November 12, 2019, finding him entitled to compensation. Subsequently, on May 21, 2021, the parties submitted a proffer on award of compensation. The court awarded Mr. Romo-Villanueva a total of $171,671.21, comprising a lump sum of $160,198.04 for first-year life care expenses and pain and suffering, and a lump sum of $11,473.17 to satisfy a Medicaid lien. Additionally, an amount was awarded to purchase an annuity for future life care expenses, with payments adjusted for medical and non-medical items and contingent on Mr. Romo-Villanueva's survival.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
