Representatives - What types of compensation does the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) provide to those who qualify?

If an individual qualifies for CICP benefits, that person may be compensated for:

• Medical expenses (unreimbursed/out-of-pocket medical expenses that are reasonable and necessary to diagnose or treat your covered injury and to diagnose, treat, or prevent its health complications)
• Lost employment income
• Survivor death benefits*

*See the section for Survivors if you fall under this category.

Please note that the CICP is the payer of last resort and can only reimburse or pay for medical services or items, or lost employment income that are not covered by other third-party payers, such as health insurance, Veterans Affairs benefits, or Workers’ Compensation.
