@drjudymelinek Believe!

@docdanz007 And of course the fee review committee is the DHB - real conflict of interest there

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@henrycooke This misinformation is becoming a problem because the groups dispersing it appear to be well funded and well organised. Unfortunately there isn’t much information available in terms that most people can understand to counter it

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@NZDoctor_news @yourNZMA @CountryGPs @NZMAchair @TeOhuRata @RNZCGP @GPNZ3 In general there was very little mention of primary care in the Simpson report. Even less mention of rural health. Report Focus was on rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic. That’s what’s great about the announced changes - The aspiration to do better at a community level

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@NZDoctor_news @yourNZMA @CountryGPs @NZMAchair @TeOhuRata @RNZCGP @GPNZ3 To be fair there was little mention of General Practice too.

@charlie_psych @HelenPParker First there has to be the conversation. Often it doesn’t even get that far it seems

@MariaSherwood2 @JohnJCampbell Is there a link to the interview?

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@drjudymelinek More flaps!

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@MaxRashbrooke Certainly dont want to go to NHS model of 7 min GP appointments and only one health issue discussed.

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@MaxRashbrooke There are just not enough GPs to meet demand. The GP model has to change too. I think you would very quickly get GPs on board if you could help them do better by their patients.

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@GPNZ3 NO SURPRISES!!!!! Surely you are watching a different live stream to us!

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@docdanz007 @WellSouth1 Wonder what is planned for the broken capitation model? I suspect the only thing that keeps GPs afloat financially is ACC

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@docdanz007 @WellSouth1 PHOs in general have struggled for a role because of indirect funding (via DHB) and an over emphasis on compliance. Maybe localities will bring a more holistic view to health so that funding is tied to patient and not to a specific disease

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@docdanz007 @WellSouth1 Im not sure how the localities will work at a granular level, but remember as well as the 4 localities we also have Maori Health Authority which will has commissioning rights.

[Healthtek.NZ @HealthtekNZ]

@docdanz007 High level info...not much detail yet.
