Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2013: Discussion

10:40 am

Mr. Brian Dunne:

In respect of the impact of TRS, we introduced a certain number in our script. It is clear that when the Minister announced it on budget day, he expected that the number of adults that would be impacted by the change was between 40% to 50%. It is clear from our data and pricing that the number for us is 92%. Effectively, the impact is very substantial.
