@drmarkmurphy@IrishTimes@ITletters Spot on Mark. Important this area is explored.
@irishtimes would be best advised to ask you to write an opinion piece on screening. It would be informative, balanced and accurate.

This programme has made a fundamental difference to the health care that can be delivered to disadvantaged communities.
Resourcing care where it is most needed.
Evidence based. Community provided.
By GPs who know their patients.

Where GPs are resourced to provide structured care to patients health, outcomes improve and pressure on hospitals reduce. The IMO urges Government to ensure health policy is led by medical evidence and not by politically motivated promises.
