1,000 public service jobs are to be cut next year, as part of cost saving efforts in 2014's health budget.
It is understood that Health Minister Dr James Reilly may also need to chose between hearing implants for profoundly deaf children and a scheme to prevent people going blind in an effort to save some €666 million.
The 1,000 HSE job cuts are expected to be accounted for by retirements and the non-replacement of staff. It means the HSE's workforce will drop from 98,955 to 97,955.
