One can get an eye test or dental treatment through PRSI contributions. I propose that people who have PRSI contributions would get an annual visit to their GP for an annual check-up. We have seen people who have not gone to the doctor and then have a serious illness. I think it comes under the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform. There could be a measure in the budget to make an accommodation for people who have PRSI contributions, whereby they have an annual visit to their GP, through the PRSI contributions, have their bloods done and have an annual check-up. It would ensure people check their health and it would encourage people who are predominantly very healthy to go to their GP for their annual check-up.
