Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Use of Private Hospitals (Resumed)
Mary Butler (Waterford, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
I thank Mr. Breslin. We learned from the opening statements that between 44% and 50% of private hospital capacity was utilised over the last couple of months. We learned last Friday that the arrangement will not continue. Are there any plans by the Department or the HSE to utilise as much capacity as possible during the month of June to tackle some of the extensive waiting lists that are out there?
