PANEL DISCUSSION: Innovative ways to tackle the backlog and improve healthcare delivery
Our panellists discuss the impact Covid-19 has had on HSE ‘business as usual’ care delivery, with thousands of patients suffering from the cancellation of their procedures and treatment. We will explore how our already stretched health service can deal with unprecedented demand and discuss solutions for catching up and restoring normal care delivery, while ensuring the needs of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged patients are taken care of.
