Hello. Is it a prerequisite when applying for a medical card that you must reside within a certain distance of your preferred GP's surgery? Is there a set limit of kilometres?

Hi. Each GP or group of GPs on the scheme has a catchment area. Local HSE Community Care office or Primary Care Reimbursement Service, nationally, will try to keep you assigned to a GP in the catchment area in which you live.

... and do you know what the definition of a catchment area is in terms of physical size?
