Over 100,000 people have now downloaded the HSE app and, from later this month, users will be able to access over 1m hospital appointments, with plans underway to also link in private hospitals.
However the “big programme” move to national digital health records remains some way off, with an estimate of up five to 10 years before this is fully realised.
