Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Primary Care Services: Discussion
9:00 am
Dr. Austin Byrne:
They vary in the public sector. However, we can get a good benchmark from international figures. We need to look at what is available elsewhere in the world. Furthermore, it is not enough to say that a doctor is being paid a given amount. We have to consider the workload relating to families, other paperwork, after-hours care and 24-7 on-call liability.
