Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 30 April 2014
735. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Health the current total annual cost of the maternity and infant care antenatal combined care scheme, including a breakdown of the amount that goes to general practitioners and the amount to hospitals. [18692/14]
View answerThe Maternity and Infant Care Scheme provides an agreed programme of care to all expectant mothers who are ordinarily resident in Ireland. This service is provided by a family doctor (GP) of the expectant mother's choice and a hospital obstetrician.
As this service is operated by the Health Service Executive I have asked them to forward the information requested directly to the Deputy.
