Concerns have been raised over the prospect of downgrading Waterford Regional Hospital.
It is understood that a meeting was held at the hospital late last week, and plans were revealed to potentially downgrade the facility to a county hospital.
The meeting was called by consultants working at the hospital, and following the meeting it was decided to send a report to Health Minister James Reilly.
If the move goes ahead, hundreds of jobs could be at risk.
Waterford Regional Hospital's catchment area includes neighbouring counties Wexford, Tipperary and Kilkenny.
