Management of Hospital Waiting Lists and Insourcing and Outsourcing of Treatment: Discussion
2:00 am
Colm Burke (Cork North-Central, Fine Gael)
What percentage increase does Mr. Gloster see with regard to trying to improve the service? We are paying quite a lot of money to outsource work. We are dealing with the treatment purchase fund and the treatment abroad fund. We have a lot of money going there, whereas if it were spent within the hospitals, we would get continuous service and a better outcome for patients in real terms.
