Complete·6/25/25

This bill expands Maine's Universal Childhood Immunization Program to include adults.

The bill amends Maine's Universal Childhood Immunization Program to include adults, expanding access to immunizations against diseases recommended by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The program, administered by the Maine Vaccine Board, aims to optimize resources and lower costs. The Childhood Immunization Fund, overseen by the board, will cover vaccine costs for both children and adults. The board will determine annual assessments for entities covering children and may set interim assessments for new vaccines.
