207. To ask the Minister for Health if he will confirm that persons (details supplied) in County Dublin will receive the refund owed to them by the Health Service Executive due to their overpayment of the monthly €120 prescribed by the drug payment scheme over the periods of March to December 2011 and January to August 2012, in view of the fact that at that time the guidelines for the drug payment scheme clearly stated that a person or family here only had to pay €120 each month for approved prescribed drugs, medicines and certain appliances for use by that person or their family in that month; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The HSE is responsible for the administration of the Drug Payment Scheme; therefore, the matter has been referred to the HSE for attention and direct reply to the Deputy.
