View answerSouthDoc is a private company. It provides out of hours GP services to GMS patients under the terms of a Service Level Agreement with the HSE, and it provides services to private patients under private contract. As SouthDoc is a private entity, neither the Minister for Health nor the HSE has legal standing to appoint a Board Member to the company.
