Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Operation of the Medical Card Scheme: Discussion

Ms Celeste O'Callaghan:

On the numbers who might qualify for the terminal illness medical card, providing an assessment of the likely expansion is part of the analysis we are doing to underpin the legislation. There is other work ongoing to try to get a better handle on those numbers.

On the GP negotiations, I will hand over to my colleague, Mr. Noonan, who is the principal officer with responsibility for GP services.
