Healthcare in Ireland is financed by the state. Citizens have the option of buying additional private health insurance. There are public as well as private hospitals. Private patients are often treated in public hospitals, as by definition all privately insured patients have an entitlement to use the publicly funded system.

Govt funding needs to be directed in a better way. cost for accessing the hospital by employees is a problem due to current transport system which needs to be acknowledged.
