Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on Sláintecare Reforms (Resumed)

Mr. Damien McCallion:

They are clinically led. They are defined clinically. That is the work that, as Fran said, Dr. Colm Henry and the team are doing. It is being rolled out in the UK as well. It is varying in its impact. The big benefit is there is more capacity in a shorter period. From a patient's perspective, if they do not need to be in the hospital, then it is a benefit.
