Government Plans Fair Deal - Nursing Home Support Scheme

A Fair Deal is the new proposed Nursing Home Support Scheme. A Fair Deal is intended to replace the current public nursing home scheme and the private nursing home subvention scheme. Under A Fair Deal, each person will make a contribution to care costs, based on means. The State will pay all the balance, in both public and private nursing homes.

The Minister for Health and Children announced the publication of legislation to provide for the Nursing Home Support Scheme, known as A Fair Deal, on October 9th 2008. An information leaflet is available from the HSE or on their web site.

Medical Cards

Medical Cards allow people to access Family Doctor or GP services, community health services, dental services, prescription medicine costs, hospital care and a range of other benefits free of charge.

Most people who get a Medical Card do so because their income is below a certain level. It is also possible to get a Medical Card if the costs of meeting your medical needs causes you financial hardship, or if you have entitlement under EU regulations.

Medical Cards are issued by the HSE's 32 Local Health Offices nationwide, and these offices also accept and carry out the assessment of your application.

For Medical Card Applications, the HSE only considers your income after tax and PRSI is deducted, rather than total income. They also make allowances for expenses on childcare, on rent and mortgage costs and on travel to work.
