Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 12 November 2014
106. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Health if all prescription charge refunds have been issued to those on the long term illness scheme who are or were also medical card holders during the applicable timeframe; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [43343/14]
View answerUnder the Health (Pricing and Supply of Medical Goods) Act 2013, the Health Service Executive (HSE) has statutory responsibility for the administration of the primary care schemes, including the Long Term Illness Scheme, therefore the matter has been referred to the HSE for attention and direct reply to the Deputy.
If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.
