The State Claims Agency (SCA) has a statutory remit to manage personal injury claims on behalf of Delegated State Authorities including the Health Service Executive.
I have been informed by the SCA that the information contained in the attached report has been extracted from the National Incident Management System (NIMS) according to the below criteria.
The SCA does not release transaction data into the public domain at individual hospital level because to do so would effectively provide a league table of hospitals and could cause the public to draw false and unwarranted assumptions in relation to the clinical performance of an individual hospital in the absence of further relevant contextual information.
Criteria used
- Payments relate to Acute Statutory and Voluntary Hospitals only.
- Relates to payments made under the Clinical Indemnity Scheme and the General Indemnity Scheme.
- Amount paid in damages for the period 2013-2022
