SF unveils plans for all-Ireland healthcare system

ONLY people with wealth can buy health in Ireland’s unequal healthcare system, Sinn Féin claimed yesterday.

The party, which launched an All-Ireland policy document, is calling on the public to support a national day of action on the issue on May 13.

The party’s Healthcare in an Ireland of Equals blueprint called for universal access to health services, a new Health Funding Commission to study the costs of a 32-county system and the abolition of any privatisation of healthcare.
