RESPONDENT'S PROFFER ON AWARD OF COMPENSATION

I. Items of Compensation

A. Life Care Items

The respondent engaged life care planner, Shelly Kinney, RN, MSN, CCM, CNCLP, to 

provide an estimation of M.M.H.’s future vaccine injury-related needs. For the purposes of this 

proffer, the term “vaccine injury” is as described in the special master’s Ruling on Entitlement 

issued on July 20, 2010. All items of compensation identified in the life care plan are supported 

by the evidence, and are illustrated by the chart entitled Appendix A: Items of Compensation for 

M.M.H., attached hereto as Tab A.1

 Respondent proffers that M.M.H. should be awarded all 

items of compensation set forth in the joint life care plan and illustrated by the chart attached at 

Tab A. Petitioners agree.

 1 The chart at Tab A illustrates the annual benefits provided by the life care plan. The annual 

benefit years run from the date of judgment up to the first anniversary of the date of judgment, 

and every year thereafter up to the anniversary of the date of judgment.

-1-

 
B. Partial Lost Future Earnings

The parties agree that based upon the evidence of record, M.M.H. has suffered a partial 

loss of future earning capacity. Therefore, respondent proffers that M.M.H. should be awarded 

partial lost future earnings as provided under the Vaccine Act, 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-15(a)(3)(B). 

Respondent proffers that the appropriate award for M.M.H.’s partial lost future earnings is 

$451,138.33. Petitioners agree.

C. Pain and Suffering

Respondent proffers that M.M.H. should be awarded $157,702.55 in actual and projected 

pain and suffering. This amount reflects that the award for projected pain and suffering has been 

reduced to net present value. See 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-15(a)(4). Petitioners agree.

D. Past Unreimbursable Expenses

Evidence supplied by petitioners documents their expenditure of past unreimbursable 

expenses related to M.M.H.’s vaccine injury. Respondent proffers that petitioners should be 

awarded past unreimbursable expenses in the amount of $9,499.63. Petitioners agree.

E. Medicaid Lien

Petitioners represent that there are no outstanding Medicaid liens against M.M.H.. 

II. Form of the Award

The parties recommend that the compensation provided to M.M.H. should be made 

through a combination of lump sum payments and future annuity payments as described below, 

and request that the special master’s decision and the Court’s judgment award the following:

A. A lump sum payment of $627,283.18, representing compensation for partial lost 

future earnings ($451,138.33), pain and suffering ($157,702.55), and life care expenses for Year 

-2-
One ($18,442.30), in the form of a check payable to petitioners as guardians or conservators of 

M.M.H., for the benefit of M.M.H.. No payments shall be made until petitioners provide 

respondent with documentation establishing that they have been appointed as the guardians or 

conservators of M.M.H.’s estate. If petitioners are not authorized by a court of competent 

jurisdiction to serve as guardians or conservators of the estate of M.M.H., any such payment 

shall be made to the party or parties appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction to serve as 

guardian(s) or conservator(s) of the estate of M.M.H. upon submission of written documentation 

of such appointment to the Secretary.;

B. A lump sum payment of $9,499.63, representing compensation for past 

unreimbursable expenses, payable to Rickey Harris and Jamila Harris, petitioners;

C. An amount sufficient to purchase the annuity contract,2 subject to the conditions 

described below, that will provide payments for the life care items contained in the life care plan, 

as illustrated by the chart at Tab A attached hereto, paid to the life insurance company3 from

 2 In respondent’s discretion, respondent may purchase one or more annuity contracts from 

one or more life insurance companies.

 3 The Life Insurance Company must have a minimum of $250,000,000 capital and surplus, 

exclusive of any mandatory security valuation reserve. The Life Insurance Company must have 

one of the following ratings from two of the following rating organizations:

a. A.M. Best Company: A++, A+, A+g, A+p, A+r, or A+s;

b. Moody's Investor Service Claims Paying Rating: Aa3, Aa2, Aa1, or Aaa;

which the annuity will be purchased.4

 Compensation for Year Two (beginning on the first 

anniversary of the date of judgment) and all subsequent years shall be provided through 

respondent’s purchase of an annuity, which annuity shall make payments directly to petitioners

as guardians or conservators of the estate of M.M.H., for the benefit of M.M.H., only so long as 

M.M.H. is alive at the time a particular payment is due. At the Secretary’s sole discretion, the 

periodic payments may be provided to petitioners in monthly, quarterly, annual or other 

installments. The “annual amounts” set forth in the chart at Tab A describe only the total yearly 

sum to be paid to petitioners and do not require that the payment be made in one annual 

installment.

1. Growth Rate

Respondent proffers that a four percent (4%) growth rate should be applied to all nonmedical life care items, and a five percent (5%) growth rate should be applied to all medical life 

care items. Thus, the benefits illustrated in the chart at Tab A that are to be paid through annuity 

payments should grow as follows: four percent (4%) compounded annually from the date of 

judgment for non-medical items, and five percent (5%) compounded annually from the date of 

judgment for medical items. Petitioners agree.

2. Life-contingent annuity

 Petitioners will continue to receive the annuity payments from the Life Insurance 

Company only so long as M.M.H. is alive at the time that a particular payment is due. Written 

 4

 Petitioners authorize the disclosure of certain documents filed by the petitioners in this case 

consistent with the Privacy Act and the routine uses described in the National Vaccine Injury 

Compensation Program System of Records, No. 09-15-0056.

notice shall be provided to the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Life Insurance 

Company within twenty (20) days of M.M.H.’s death. 

3. Guardianship

No payments shall be made until petitioners provide respondent with documentation 

establishing that they have been appointed as the guardians or conservators of M.M.H.’s estate. 

If petitioners are not authorized by a court of competent jurisdiction to serve as guardians or 

conservators of the estate of M.M.H., any such payment shall be made to the party or parties 

appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction to serve as guardian(s) or conservator(s) of the 

estate of M.M.H. upon submission of written documentation of such appointment to the 

Secretary.

III. Summary of Recommended Payments Following Judgment

M.M.H.’s estate: $ 627,283.18 

B. Lump sum paid to petitioners: $ 9,499.63
