The Programme for a Partnership Government committed to the establishment of an Oireachtas All-Party Committee to develop a long-term vision for healthcare and direction of health policy over a 10 year period, with cross-party support.

The Committee on the Future of Healthcare was established in June 2016 and has been specifically tasked with examining and costing different funding models for the health service and to make recommendations on a funding approach that is best suited to the Irish context. The Committee is due to report by 28 April 2017.
