Health Services We Fund

Primary Health Care

CMDHB funds a number of primary health care services ensuring that you receive effective health care that meets your needs. Most of these services are provided through Primary Health Organisations (PHOs), general practices; and a wide range of community based providers and other organisations that provide first point of contact, primary health care related services, e.g. pharmacies, well child services; laboratories, oral health services, etc.

In this section you will find information on how these services are planned and funded. If you are looking for GP contact details go to www.webhealth.co.nz and for how to access hospital or specialist services, go to www.healthpoint.co.nz.

We are working with PHOs and other health providers in the community to improve and strengthen the overall services offered to you. The aim is to grow the workforce and build up teamwork with different parties involved in providing primary health care services.

Mangere Integrated Community Healthcare Project

A workshop for local stakeholders from Mangere (manawhenua, PHOs, primary health care providers, NGOs, other sectors, DHB staff, including provider-arm services) was held on 29 August 2007 to talk about the nature of the project, and how it should be taken forward by the DHB and its local partners.
