Developing a new model of health care management for better patient outcomes across New Zealand
July 9, 2019
Across New Zealand more than 150 practices are already working with the new Health Care Home model.
The Health Care Home model provides better patient care options including long-term health care plans for patients with higher needs.
Practices using the Health Care Home model are able to improve their business’ efficiency while maintaining high standards.
Health Care Home provides a new model of care which allows GP practices to improve patient care, both for urgent and unplanned cases and for long-term managed care. The model also helps practices improve working conditions and become more efficient.
GP practices and PHOs using Health Care Home are already seeing benefits. These include reductions in emergency care and hospital admissions, better long-term care plans and more collaboration between staff.
The Health Care Home model is proving popular with patients who find it easier to access their GP and manage their health needs as well as benefitting from faster and better responses when needed urgently.
