Maine insurance companies are taking steps to encourage people to get their H-1-N-1 flu shots.
Medical Directors from local insurance companies met with Maine CDC Director, Doctor Dora Mills Wednesday.
They told her they're using a billing approach that makes it easier to hold vaccine clinics across the state, easing the pressure on doctors.
They are also looking to change the classification for certain anti-viral medications, making it more accessible as well.
H1N1 has already contributed to five deaths in Maine.
