What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A review by the Health Service Executive found that consultants providing private healthcare in public settings have ceased, aligning with the terms of their new contracts. This followed a dispute where Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill threatened funding and indemnity against Rotunda Hospital if it did not comply with public-only contract rules. The hospital board eventually backed down.
