Tue 10 Oct 2008Call for extra funds for cardiac service

Waterford Fine Gael TD, John Deasy said providing an extra €1.4 million per annum for the Regional Cardiac Catheterisation Laboratory at Waterford would pay for itself as it would enable the HSE to save on the expense of transferring patients to Dublin for angiograms.
