A temporary arrangement was put in place by the Health Service in January.
The HSE is giving assurances the out of hours GP services will continue in the midlands.
That's according to Laois Fine Gael Councillor Thomasina Connell, who also says she's confidence it is safe even though there's no exact date to sign a contract with the new provider.
A temporary arrangement was put in place by the Health Service when the company operating the MIDOC service ceased trading at the end of last year.
Cllr Connell says she was disappointed the HSE didn't manage the communications better at the time:
