Lawrie Hooper made the statement at the 2023 Isle of Man Government Conference
The health and social care minister says he believes 'something needs to change' to solve the funding gap in the health sector.
Lawrie Hooper made the statement at the 2023 Isle of Man Government Conference which was held this week.
Manx Care is forecasting significant overspend - something he says isn't sustainable.
Mr Hooper adds the Sir Johnathon report published in 2019 indicated that if government did not solve the problem the funding gap would 'balloon' to hundreds of millions of pounds rather than hundreds of thousands:
Storm Dave to bring severe gales
Manx Care 'attempting to establish contact' with dental provider as patients face uncertainty
'Significant dredging works' in Douglas Harbour
'Operational reasons' and tidal restrictions delay Heysham sailing schedule
