Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Cancer Screening Programmes: Discussion
9:00 am
Ms Marie Culliton:
On eHealth, there is an ongoing project, which is moving slower than we would like, called the national medical laboratory information system, MedLIS. It is examining a single laboratory information system for the entire country. In respect of the management of HPV testing and results, when this is repatriated and the testing is done in Ireland, that system will then be in a position to manage the dissemination of results nationally. All public laboratories will be feeding into that system.
