Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

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

Mr. Peter Lennon:

The provision in the Health Identifiers Act 2014 specifically provides that in communications between health service providers, between one hospital and another hospital, they will use the IHI. That is a legislative requirement. However, they can only use the IHI when it is embedded in their systems.
