Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 17 May 2012
189 Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Health the reason a medical card was withdrawn in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; if same will be reinstated; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24739/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraIf a person has been refused a medical card they can lodge an appeal within 21 days. Details of the appeals process are forwarded to the applicant with their refusal letter. As this refusal of a medical card renewal is a service matter I have referred it to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy.
