MaineCare Will Continue to Cover Children's Flu and COVID-19 Vaccines </a></u></span>on Dec 18, 2024. “MaineCare sent a previous e-message on December 12, 2024, announcing that the scheduled December 31, 2024, end of The Third Amendment to the Public Readiness
and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act would lead to changes in flu and COVID-19 vaccine coverage for children ages 18 and under. You may disregard that previous information: MaineCare will be able to continue to pay for children receiving vaccines in all healthcare
settings they have been using in recent years. Effective December 11, 2024, the PREP Act was amended a twelfth (12th) time to extend coverage through December 31, 2029. As a result, MaineCare members may continue to receive flu and COVID-19 vaccines through
a pharmacy provider if they choose. MaineCare members may also get vaccines through their primary care provider and vaccine clinics.”</div>
