On Friday 26 April 2018, a helpline was established for women affected by news of the CervicalCheck audit. As part of managing queries to this helpline, the HSE has advised that it was agreed to recruit a small number of experienced physicians in the field of obstetrics/gynaecology. These were recruited on a temporary basis for a short period to support and assist the call back team with specific complex medical queries. Their terms and conditions are in line with the rates delivered by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in Ireland.
