Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

General Scheme of the Health Information Bill 2023: Department of Health

Given that everybody already has an IHI, there should be no difficulty from a practical perspective as the IHI is fully rolled out, to making the PPS number a practical identifier. As the Deputy knows, it is already widely used in a number of health service areas.
