I understand that the Health Service Executive has replied to the Deputy in relation to this matter following her Question on 9 June 2009. The National Treatment Purchase Fund arranges treatment for patients who have been on a surgical waiting list for more than three months. It is open to the person in question or anyone acting on their behalf to contact the Fund directly in relation to their case.
