Re: Irish Health Service Waiting Lists
Well even private healthcare doesn't guarantee you better treatment and no waiting lists. Know people who are now cancelling their policies because of cross border healthcare, because why pay when you have access to all public hospitals in Ireland and Europe. Private is maybe good when you want a separate room etc.

Re: Irish Health Service Waiting Lists
You have approached your TD and he/she has gone through the motions and the hospital have replied and that to you appears to be the end of it.
Perhaps it is about individual expectations of what should be provided and what one should do to secure that?
The other observation is that, it is not 8,000 on that consultant's waiting list it is 8000 divided by an unspecified number of consultants, as you said.

I guess that you have resigned yourself to what you see as your lot, even though you continue to grumble.
