View answerThe Health Service Executive has the operational and funding responsibility for the medical card and GP visit card benefits. It collates medical card and GP visit card data by Local Health Office, age and gender. Therefore, my Department has asked the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to address this matter and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
