By the end of this year the HSE is planning to have 486 Primary Care Teams (PCTs) in place. At the end of February 2012, there are 400 Primary Care Teams (PCTs) operating at varying stages of development (holding clinical team meetings on individual client cases and involving GPs and HSE staff). 52 PCTs have become operational since the beginning of February 2011. 15 Primary Care Centres (PCCs) opened during 2011 or in early 2012, bringing the total number of new PCCs in operation to date to 34. The HSE's 2012 National Service Plan makes provision for a further 19 new PCCs, which are planned for completion in 2012 or early 2013.
