Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Quarterly Meeting on Health Issues

Ms Anne O'Connor:

The honest answer is that I am not sure. In terms of the work we are doing with the mid-west, the head of primary care there is very engaged with us in terms of the roll-out. That is where we have the CIT and the FIT proposals coming through.

In terms of how GPs access community diagnostics, I would have to check what the mechanism for communicating that is. I am sure there is some mechanism that has been thought through but I do not know the answer to it.
