The Health Service Executive (HSE) provides a wide range of medical and surgical aids and appliances, free of charge to eligible people following assessment by a relevant health professional. These are provided through community services known as Community Funded Schemes and play a key role in assisting and supporting people with diverse medical conditions to maintain everyday functioning, and to remain living in their homes and local community.
I welcome the submission that has been made and note that many of the recommendations included would be for other Government Departments to progress. Any health measures announced in budget 2024 will be in the context of the implementation of the health commitments in the Programme for Government and the funding available.
