Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health

Payments in respect of immunisations, out-of-hours services and special items of service are made to service providers by the Primary Care Reimbursement Service in accordance with the provisions of the respective contract for service which the service provider holds with the HSE. Consequently, the HSE has been requested to provide the specific information in tabular form on a regional basis to the Deputy as soon as possible.
