Hospital services in Ireland

There are 3 different types of hospitals in Ireland:

• Public hospitals run by the State through the Health Service Executive
• Voluntary public hospitals, are mainly state-funded but are sometimes owned by private bodies. For example, religious orders. Other voluntary public hospitals are run by boards often appointed by the Minister for Health
• Private hospitals receive no state funding
