He further alleged that his symptoms persisted longer than six months. The respondent, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, filed a Rule 4(c) Report and Proffer on Damages, conceding that Mr. Miller is entitled to compensation. The respondent stated that Mr. Miller satisfied the criteria set forth in the Vaccine Injury Table and the Qualifications and Aids to Interpretation. Based on the respondent's concession and the evidence of record, the Chief Special Master found Mr. Miller entitled to compensation. The decision awarding damages stated that Mr. Miller should be awarded $362,226.07, representing $215,000.00 for pain and suffering, $1,883.07 for past unreimbursed expenses, and $145,343.00 in lost wages. Mr. Miller agreed with this proffered award. The court awarded Mr. Miller a lump sum payment of $362,226.07 as compensation for all damages.","is_minor_inferred":0,"is_pediatric_broad":0,"special_master":"Brian H.
