Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 19 July 2016
591. Deputy Timmy Dooley asked the Minister for Health the reason the HSE has failed to cover the cost of Midon, a drug recommended by consultant neurologists in the treatment of Parkinson's disease for inclusion under the long-term illness scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22079/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the HSE has statutory responsibility for decisions on pricing and reimbursement of medicinal products under the community drug schemes, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy on this issue. 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.
