Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

Cathal Crowe: I thank the witnesses for attending this morning. Is it not an awful indictment that there is more known about each one of our cars through the national car test database than there is about our public health? If I look up 141 CE 122, which is the registration number of my Honda car, I can see that much more is known about the wear and tear on the front right tyre and the wishbone joint than...

Cathal Crowe: I ask Dr. Murphy to answer the question. What paper system is there if someone from Galway moves down to Clare and then on to Wexford? What travels with a patient around the country?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

Cathal Crowe: We heard that. What is there at the moment for a guy or girl who comes into accident and emergency with something chronic and painful? Let us say they need treatment there and then, and they are admitted. What follows them from a hospital they have already been in?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

Cathal Crowe: Okay. We got to that eventually. Is there not a huge risk in that? I was in accident and emergency a few years ago with a concussion on the back of my head and the first 40 minutes or so were spent in triage. It was all questions about date of birth, PPS number and all of those things. If someone is coming in concussed or bleeding heavily from an injury, those initial moments should be...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

Cathal Crowe: If doing this internally - having an Irish system for an Irish problem - is taking so much time, why can we not go internationally? I hope this is not a clumsy analogy but I am on the transport committee and the Irish Aviation Authority, IAA, is believed to have systems so far advanced internationally that it is now able to contract them out to other countries. Surely the NHS or other...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

Cathal Crowe: As a final point, sometimes opportunities pass people by. There were two really quickly delivered protocols here in the last two years. One was the digital Covid certificates. I was going to say we all had them on our phones but some people bought in and some did not.
