‹ Order of Business Free GP care implementation
Summary
Mattie McGrath raises the low participation of South Tipperary GPs in free care for under-sixes and criticises ministerial pressure; the Ceann Comhairle says the Bill is with the President.
Under the Health (General Practitioners Service) Bill 2014 regarding doctors and the free GP care for children under six, only three GPs in South Tipperary have signed up to this scheme. Does the Taoiseach have a plan B to deal with this situation?
Comment on this
In Tipperary primary health care they are good people and want to look after their patients but they are being forced, coerced and bullied and the Minister for Health took to tweeting 20 of them at the weekend to cop on. Is this good language for a Minister?
