For some New Zealanders, the cost of mobile data can be a barrier to accessing essential health and wellbeing information and digital health services. Those who cannot access information and services often have the highest needs.
Te Puna Hauora Matua o Hauraki Board Meeting Board members recently met with Te Puna Hauora Matua o Hauraki management team to kōrero on the strategic direction for Primary Health Organisation’s (PHO’s), strategic priorities and the role of localities in system change and responsiveness to whānau voice. David Taipari, Chair for the Hauraki Māori Trust Board and Hauraki representative on Te Tiratū the Tainui Iwi Māori Partnership Board (IMPB) gave an update on the process for the IMPB being gazetted and added to the Pae Ora Act schedule.
