Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 38 - Health
Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (2 Feb 2023)

Matt Carthy: I thank our guests for being here. We have been discussing the long-stay repayment scheme in the context of two distinct groups, if I am correct in respect of what is being said by Mr. Mulvany. We have the medical card holders in public nursing homes who, largely, were all eligible under the scheme and medical card holders in private nursing homes, which the HSE and the Department have...

Vote 38 - Health
Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (2 Feb 2023)

Matt Carthy: Mr. Mulvany’s point is made. Is it not correct to say that there is a third group, because there were also medical card holders in what are known as section 38 and 39 disability services homes, in community hospitals, essentially? Is that not correct? I refer Mr. Mulvany to the financial statements of the HSE from quite a number of years ago, for 2009, 2010 and 2011, which I will...

Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (2 Feb 2023)

Matt Carthy: I am surprised Mr. Mulvany does not know this because this is even included in the Comptroller and Auditor General’s report of September 2011, which noted that a hearing in this area was awaited. As I mentioned, the 2012 financial statements provided for €8 million in the 2013 HSE budget to refund repayments to these outstanding claims. A total of €8 million was...

Health Service Executive - Financial Statements 2021 (Resumed) (2 Feb 2023)

Matt Carthy: Is Mr. Mulvany aware of the reason the appeal was dropped? The State was going to appeal its own appeals officer in respect of these particular cases. As I understand it, there were potentially up to 10,000 people across all homes, but more than 300 had lodged appeals. These were going to be deemed eligible as a result of the appeals officer’s decision. The HSE and the Department...
