Ceisteanna (1226)

Mairéad Farrell

Ceist:

1226. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Health the method used to decide the discretionary medical card applications that are assessed before others; if applications for patients with conditions that require intensive and immediate treatment, such as cancer, are being prioritised by the primary care reimbursement service; and, if not, if they could be in the future; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
