Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
HSE National Service Plan 2023: Discussion
Mr. Damien McCallion:
To flag one other point, we track the number of GPs per CHO population. As the CEO said, we try, where possible, to direct people towards areas where there is a deficit. However, GPs have the choice as to where they go to work. We examine the proportion of GPs per 10,000 population in each of the CHOs and try to address areas in which there are large populations.
