Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

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

Professor Risteárd Ó Laoide:

When a patient is referred to be seen urgently in the triple assessment clinic, TAC, our guidelines, our key performance indicators, KPIs, suggest that she should be seen within two weeks. In the past 18 months, this has been particularly difficult, but 90% of patients are seen within four weeks and the remainder within six weeks.
