Róisín Shortall

Question:

626. Deputy Róisín Shortall asked the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 422 of 4 October 2018, the reason deprivation rates and area socioeconomic profiles are not used to calculate funding allocations for funding for home care packages; the reason he has not directed the HSE to develop a funding model that takes these factors into consideration when allocating funding; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Deputy as soon as possible.
