What is National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program?
The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) is a Federal "no-fault" system designed to compensate individuals, or families of individuals, who have been injured by childhood vaccines, whether administered in the private or public sector. The VICP is a no-fault alternative to the traditional tort system for resolving vaccine injury claims that provides compensation to people found to be injured by certain vaccines. The U. S.

- The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
- The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)
- The U.S. Court of Federal Claims (the Court)
The VICP is located in the HHS, Health Resources and Services Administration, Healthcare Systems Bureau, Division of Vaccine Injury Compensation.
