Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Update on Sláintecare Reforms
Mr. Robert Watt:
Mr. Gloster has responded to the questions reasonable well. There is a differential. As Mr. Gloster mentioned, there are good reasons for that. We have done several pieces of analysis. A review was done by Mr. Tom Ferris, a former senior civil servant, to explain in detail the difference. There was another review done. It reflects the complexity of cases and the different needs that patients have. It reflects different terms and conditions in the public sector versus the private sector. It is a large differential.
