Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

BreastCheck and National Cancer Control Programme: HSE
BreastCheck Screening Programme and Improving Outcomes for Breast Cancer: Discussion

Mr. Martin O'Sullivan:

There is no national database to this effect but all eight designated breast units are committed to and run a family history service. Some of these individual units will have a database. What the NCCP is hoping to do is streamline this process and standardise it better to ensure equality of access across the country. There are probably people who would benefit from having a family history assessment but who are not having it-----
