Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Management of Hospital Waiting Lists and Insourcing and Outsourcing of Treatment: Discussion

2:00 am

Dr. Colm Henry:

At least one of the reports coming from CHI certainly raised concerns over clinical standards and over variations in, for example, in thresholds in DDH surgeries, and over the clinical governance of the spinal unit at CHI.

That issue is separate from insourcing where there were certainly concerns leading to who is responsible for ongoing adherence to standards, good practice, safety and good guidelines. There were concerns and those are the subject of a number of investigations.
