Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children’s Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board
Ms Eilísh Hardiman:
Yes, but one part of it is delivered through the HSE because it is the national electronic healthcare record. ICT contains two elements. It is these and everything outside the wall that we need for the hospital and that is in one of the increases. The HSE has to implement the national electronic healthcare record and that is another cost that has been quantified here. We have to get ready to move into this building. When the building is handed over, we have to service and commission it, train all the staff and do all the moving of patients into it. That is also in our projected costs.
