Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Consideration and Implications of 2024 Health Services Funding: Discussion

Ms Louise McGirr:

It is clear there are aspects of it on the non-pay acute side that we see in the base next year: medical supplies, surgical supplies, heat and light, laboratory costs and food costs. It is difficult to see how they will go down and then there are elements of it that should not be in the base.
