2016 Financial Statements of the State Claims Agency
2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) Catherine Connolly: I have read the State Claims Agency's documentation which is very good. I have also read the chapter in 2012 by the Comptroller and Auditor General. What impresses me is that the State Claims Agency is thorough in theory and carries out an investigation. According to the chapter, only 40% of the claims which the agency came across had been previously reported as adverse clinical incidents....

2016 Financial Statements of the State Claims Agency
2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) Catherine Connolly: Even though there was an obligation on the various health organisations to report a clinical incident, only 40% had been reported. Given that that was in 2012, has the figure changed? Given all of the training and the importance of disclosure, what is the current figure for the number of adverse clinical incidents reported?

2016 Financial Statements of the State Claims Agency
2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) Catherine Connolly: While it is likely that only a small proportion of adverse clinical events will lead to a claim, nevertheless there is still a statutory obligation to report them. In that regard, the figure in 2012 was 40%. What was the percentage reported in 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016?

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) Catherine Connolly: What I am trying to find out is how one improves the system. Moving away from the very specific issue at which we have looked today, generally, how can the system be improved? Under the system in place in 2012, the figure was 40%, but Mr. Breen does not have any of the details. He is now telling me that he has changed the system because it was not a very reliable indicator.

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) Catherine Connolly: I just want to know if the system has improved sufficiently that more than 40% of serious clinical incidents are being reported? I refer to Galway University Hospital and the publicity surrounding the inappropriate procedure carried out by a surgeon. It is all public knowledge. Was it reported as a major clinical event?

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (10 May 2018) Catherine Connolly: I would like to finish my questioning. On the memo, this incident was not regarded as serious. The memo states it was not a patient safety incident but rather a reflection of the known limitations to the current screening test. Does the agency still hold to that view or has it changed its mind? The national screening programme has assured the Department that no quality issues have...
