Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Issues Relating to General Practice: Discussion
Róisín Shortall (Dublin North West, Social Democrats) | Oireachtas source
There are two elements to my final question. Why is the IMO opposed to a new model of care? Why does it not recognise that there can be two different models of care, that is, one for existing GPs and those who are established and that being an option for new GPs and a different model for those GPs who do not want to invest in premises and want to work solely as GPs in a multidisciplinary team? Would Mr. Moran accept that it is possible to have a dual model?
Second, I ask Mr. Moran to comment on the creeping corporatisation of general practice and if he sees that as a major problem.
