Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme: Coronavirus
Monday 11th September 2023

Asked by: Christopher Chope (Conservative - Christchurch)

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, of the claims to the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme relating to covid-19 vaccinations, how many claims made before 6 September 2023 failed because (a) causation was accepted but disablement was assessed at less than 60%, (b) there was a lack of causation and (c) any other reason.

Answered by Maria Caulfield

Data up to 6 September 2023 is not currently available. Since the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) took over administration of the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme in November 2021, as of 1 September 2023, NHSBSA has 3,030 rejected COVID-19 claims. 2,809 were rejected due to lack of causation and 221 were rejected due to not meeting the 60% disability threshold. Separately, 192 claims were invalid as they did not meet the eligibility to apply under the Scheme, and therefore are not considered as rejected.
