Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Health Insurance Sector: Discussion

10:00 am

Mr. Liam Sloyan:

Yes. The age group that has seen a significantly larger decline in membership is the 18 to 29 years age group. The Central Statistics Office results show there has been a significant decrease in the number of people in the country in that age group. That is part of it, but that age group has shown the most significant decline. There has been a decline in all age groups under the age of 50 and the numbers over the age of 60 in the health insurance market have increased.
