From Afternoons, 1:20 pm on 10 August 2022

Health NZ is being asked to consider a new Telehealth model which would give greater access to specialists for people all over New Zealand.

The system, called PASE or Patient Anywhere Specialist Everywhere, is already in place in other OECD countries in a similar way to the proposal from The New Zealand Telehealth Forum.

The forum has presented a white paper to MPS ans Health NZ. Forum Chair Dr Ruth Large is a  Rural Hospital and ED specialist. She talks to Anna about their proposal.
