I understand that the HSE has written to the Deputy on 4 November 2010 in response to a previous parliamentary question from him in relation to this person. The National Treatment Purchase Fund (NTPF) was established to arrange treatment for patients who have been waiting longest on surgical, in-patient waiting lists. Subject to the resources available to it, the NTPF may arrange 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.
