Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Workforce Planning in the Health Sector: Discussion

Dr. Conall Dennedy:

The National Treatment Purchase Fund figures for some of the waiting lists of which I have personal experience give an underestimation that is tenfold. I can give the Deputy examples after the meeting. In addition, one waiting list was quoted on the NTPF website as having a wait time of one year when, in fact, the actual wait time is a further two years and four months on top of that.
