As this is a service issue the case has been referred to the National Treatment Purchase Fund for direct reply. A patient's general practitioner or anyone acting on their behalf may contact the National Treatment Purchase Fund on behalf of a patient if their medical condition warrants it. The National Treatment Purchase Fund currently arranges, from within available resources, treatment for patients who have been waiting longest on surgical in-patient waiting lists, and in some cases, diagnostic procedures for public patients.
