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.

Rather than there being more or less, people should be able to choose private or public. Private should not be overly hammered by regulation and public should not be undermined by inadequate funding.
@9VL3ZY22mos2MO
enough privatisation to let industry investigate, risk and develop, but enough healthcare infrastructure to attend everybody with no added cost
@9ZS84NG5hrs5H
Again, both public and private are required. People paying high health insurance premiums should have benefit from that over and above public health. What is the point otherwise?
@9ZQ86LB4 days4D
Less and the government funding being provided should be managed by a specialised/expert body to ensure it is utilised to the fullest for patient access which is not currently happening in this country. There is no issue with the amount of funding being provided but it is going to the wrong parts of the industry and the public/patients are not seeing the benefits.

Both. Create independent private hospitals seperate from the government so people paying private healthcare can utilize these rather then use the public system . The public system should be seperate and the government provide further funding
@9ZPR96C5 days5D
Privatisation should be encouraged as it reduces burdan on state finances however services/costs should be regulated.
@9ZNTR6Y6 days6D
There should be more focus on private health care with government subsidies instead of less private care.
@9Z957JK2wks2W
There should be more funding in both sectors, however, if privatisation helps reduce waiting time for the public system, then maybe
