      In late June 2021 Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced a new vaccine indemnity scheme, under which health practitioners found liable to pay compensation for any serious adverse events suffered by people receiving COVID-19 vaccines would have the compensation paid for them by the Commonwealth of Australia. A degree of confusion followed in the general and social media as to whether the vaccine indemnity scheme provided no fault compensation for patients. It did not. However, a few days later the Minister for Health and Ageing, The Hon Greg Hunt announced “a COVID-19 Vaccine Claim Scheme to provide further assurance and confidence to patients and health professionals in the COVID-19 vaccine rollout”. It was not until early December 2021 that the Department of Health (Cth) published the COVID-19 Vaccine Claims Scheme Policy 2021, made under the Financial Framework (Supplementary Powers) Regulations 1997 (Cth). This article provides a brief overview of that Policy.
