general, contact the Clerk, United States
Court of Federal Claims, 717 Madison
Place NW., Washington, DC 20005,
(202) 357–6400. For information on
HRSA’s role in the Program, contact the
Director, National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program, 5600 Fishers

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Program provides a system of no-fault
compensation for certain individuals
who have been injured by specified
childhood vaccines. Subtitle 2 of Title
XXI of the PHS Act, 42 U.S.C. 300aa–
10 et seq., provides that those seeking
compensation are to file a petition with
the U.S. Court of Federal Claims and to
serve a copy of the petition on the
Secretary of Health and Human
Services, who is named as the
respondent in each proceeding. The
Secretary has delegated this
responsibility under the Program to
HRSA. The Court is directed by statute
to appoint special masters who take
evidence, conduct hearings as
appropriate, and make initial decisions
as to eligibility for, and amount of,
compensation.
A petition may be filed with respect
to injuries, disabilities, illnesses,
conditions, and deaths resulting from
vaccines described in the Vaccine Injury
Table (the Table) set forth at Section
2114 of the PHS Act or as set forth at
42 CFR 100.3, as applicable. This Table
lists for each covered childhood vaccine
the conditions which may lead to
compensation and, for each condition,
the time period for occurrence of the
first symptom or manifestation of onset
or of significant aggravation after
vaccine administration. Compensation
may also be awarded for conditions not
listed in the Table and for conditions
that are manifested outside the time
periods specified in the Table, but only
if the petitioner shows that the
condition was caused by one of the
listed vaccines.
Section 2112(b)(2) of the PHS Act, 42
U.S.C. 300aa–12(b)(2), requires that
‘‘[w]ithin 30 days after the Secretary
receives service of any petition filed
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
PO 00000
Frm 00084
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
under section 2111 the Secretary shall
publish notice of such petition in the
Federal Register.’’ Set forth below is a
list of petitions received by HRSA on
May 1, 2014, through May 31, 2014.
This list provides the name of
petitioner, city and state of vaccination
(if unknown then city and state of
person or attorney filing claim), and
case number. In cases where the Court
has redacted the name of a petitioner
and/or the case number, the list reflects
such redaction.
Section 2112(b)(2) also provides that
the special master ‘‘shall afford all
interested persons an opportunity to
submit relevant, written information’’
relating to the following:
1. The existence of evidence ‘‘that
there is not a preponderance of the
evidence that the illness, disability,
injury, condition, or death described in
the petition is due to factors unrelated
to the administration of the vaccine
described in the petition,’’ and
2. Any allegation in a petition that the
petitioner either:
(a) ‘‘Sustained, or had significantly
aggravated, any illness, disability,
injury, or condition not set forth in the
Vaccine Injury Table but which was
caused by’’ one of the vaccines referred
to in the Table, or
(b) ‘‘Sustained, or had significantly
aggravated, any illness, disability,
injury, or condition set forth in the
Vaccine Injury Table the first symptom
or manifestation of the onset or
significant aggravation of which did not
occur within the time period set forth in
the Table but which was caused by a
vaccine’’ referred to in the Table.
In accordance with Section
2112(b)(2), all interested persons may
submit written information relevant to
the issues described above in the case of
the petitions listed below. Any person
choosing to do so should file an original
and three (3) copies of the information

INFORMATION CONTACT), with a copy to
