Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare

Health Service Reform: Private Hospitals Association

9:00 am

Mr. Brian Fitzgerald:

They would have inpatients and outpatients, and they would have clinics. For example, neurologists are not proceduralists, so their work is done pretty much on an ambulatory basis. They are seeing a high volume of patients. An orthopaedic surgeon might have a clinic on a Monday morning and would set up the patients to do surgery later in the week.
