Health Service Reform: Motion
8:00 am
Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Progressive Democrats)
Furthermore, if a private patient, insured patient arrives in a public hospital, no matter what bed that patient is in, the consultant gets a fee for that patient. I have described it previously as being akin to having an airline where the pilots got paid for all the business class passengers, even if they sat in the economy seats. It is ludicrous.
