I know the NTPF has tended to prioritise certain high-volume procedures. Will the resources be concentrated on those or can we expect the NTPF to extend the procedure list? How is it proposed by Dr. Colm Henry or others to identify the delayed interventions that occurred during Covid and have no doubt resulted in a need to reassess the priority of different patients on the list? Will there be a process to ensure that with this money, we get to the patients with the greatest priority?
