Challenges for health managers with MTPF

HMI - 1
The new Money Follows The Patient system which has been introduced in shadow form in 38 acute hospitals from the beginning of January this year poses a number of major challenges and concerns for health managers. Maureen Browne reports.

An extremely bleak year for the Irish health services

HMI - 0
The HSE is being asked to meet an increased demand from an ageing population for more and more expensive services with a budget which has been effectively slashed by over €1 billion and a staff which it plans to cut by a further 3,600 WTEs during the year. Maureen Browne reports.

Acute hospitals’ budgets slashed by four per cent

HMI - 0
Hospital waiting lists are set to increase significantly, as multi million budgets cuts will mean that acute hospitals will have to drastically cut the number of inpatients and outpatients they can treat this year, writes Maureen Browne.

HSE spends €3.3 billion on primary care

HMI - 0
Primary care services face significant cuts and cost reduction targets in 2014, writes Maureen Browne.

Legal situation of health managers at Dail Committees

Health managers appearing at Dail Committees are only completely protected from legal action as a result of the evidence they give to the Committees if they stick to the rules, says Maureen Browne.

New eHealth Strategy for Ireland

HMI - 0
Individual health identifiers are to be introduced for service users and providers under the Government’s new eHealth strategy. Maureen Browne reports.

It’s no good putting a bush in the gap

HMI - 0
The Special Delivery Unit (SDU) has been likened to putting a bush in a gap rather than finding out where the cattle are actually breaking out of the field, writes Maureen Browne.

Implementing open disclosure

HMI - 0
Bridging the gap between the development of an Open Disclosure policy and its successful implementation is dependent on a supported and resourced implementation programme, write Angela Tysall and Ann Duffy.
