The Health Minister has announced a plan to ‘drive down’ waiting lists including offloading patients and procedures to the private sector.
Omagh Hospital is also to be designated as Northern Ireland’s second regional Day Procedure Centre, Robin Swann says.
In a written Assembly statement, the Minister says that “despite ongoing budgetary uncertainty”, he has been able to allocate £46million for “additional waiting list activity for the first six months of 2022/23”.
