Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 May 2018
437. Deputy Willie O'Dea asked the Minister for Health his plans to reduce the waiting times for CT scans for oncology patients as in the case of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21366/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the HSE and the NTPF that waiting times for diagnostics such as CT scans are not held centrally by either body.
I have requested a report from the HSE on waiting times for CT scans for oncology patients and I will provide the Deputy with details of the report as soon as it is available.
With regard to the individual patient query, I have asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly.
