From Morning Report, 7:22 am on 22 April 2021

A former Canterbury District Health Board leader says a major revamp of the health system has been dropped on the sector like an atomic bomb.

The Government says the 20 DHBs will be scrapped and replaced with a new body, Health NZ.

A new Māori Health Authority will sit alongside.

Corin Dann spoke to the former acting head of Canterbury DHB, Mark Solomon.
