The Irish Medical Organisation is to meet with the Health Service Executive in a bid to resolve doctors' concerns over how the swine flu vaccine is to be administered.
The country's general practitioners received letters from the HSE yesterday asking them to participate and administer the vaccine.
The HSE proposed to pay the doctors €10 for each of the two shots required.
The IMO says this was done without any consultation with GPs and it would be irresponsible of the HSE to assume the doctors will take part in the programme.
Both sides have now agreed to meet next Wednesday in Dublin.
