The Australian Government has implemented a claims scheme to enable eligible claimants who have received a TGA-approved COVID-19 vaccine to obtain compensation for recognised moderate to severe vaccine-related adverse events.
About the scheme
We have implemented a claims scheme for people who suffer a moderate to severe impact following an adverse reaction to a TGA-approved COVID-19 vaccine.
We have done this to provide a simple, streamlined process to compensate eligible people, without the need for complex legal proceedings.
For full details about the scheme, including the policy document, see our collection of COVID-19 Vaccine Claims Scheme resources.
