Manx Care CEO confident it's 'value for money'
Using external medical providers to try and reduce hospital waiting lists on the Isle of Man is expected to cost £1.8 million.
Six thousand outpatient appointments are being outsourced to Medefer with NHS specialists due to conduct virtual consultations over seven specialties.
Scottish based Synaptik is bringing a team of specialist clinicians to the Island this month to carry out cataract surgery.
Manx Care chief executive Teresa Cope says using the two companies, and instigating a project for orthopaedics, is good value for money:
DoI working on Island wide review of disc parking
New catering operator sought for northern hospitality business
£1.2m allocated for new Border Division on Island
Government monitoring proposed business rate cuts announced in England
