Description:
1.1 Currently in Ireland primary immunisation consists of immunisation against diptheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, measles, mumps, rubella and tuberculosis. 1.2 There is great variability in the provision of immunisation in different areas in this country . Diptheria / tetanus, diptheria / tetanus pertussis and polio are provided by community medical officers at vaccination clinics and by general practitioners in their own surgeries. Some are offered on a sessional basis but the majority on an opportunistic basis. Payment to the general practitioner is either on a notional sessional basis, or. as a private feepaying consultation with the patient. GMS patients are only covered for free immunisation when it is provided on a sessional basis.
