    Health targets: five out of five moving in the right direction

    New Zealand

    Shorter waits, faster treatment, and more timely access to care are benefiting patients across New Zealand, with all five of the Government's health targets improving in the April to June quarter, Health Minister Simeon Brown says. "After years of decline, healthcare is improving steadily under this Government. Waiting lists are shorter, patients are spending less time in emergency departments, and more Kiwis are receiving faster cancer treatment," Mr Brown says. "We know there is more work to do, and that is exactly why now is the time to double down and build on this progress." All five health targets are set for 2030, and these results mark the second annual milestone on that path. Every one of the five has now improved two years running, which is the steady, year on year progress needed to reach the 2030 targets. Key improvements from April to June include: Mr Brown says the latest figures show encouraging progress in ensuring more patients receive their elective surgeries within four months, including hip and knee replacements and cataract surgery. "Since the peak, more than 14,200 fewer New Zealanders are waiting longer than four months for an elective procedure. That is a 41 per cent reduction, and the total waiting list has come down 11 per cent alongside it. Behind every one of those numbers is someone who is off the waiting list and on the way to getting their life back. "The latest results show the health system continues to turn a corner after the sharp decline that followed the removal of health targets by the previous Labour Government. "We thank our doctors, nurses and other frontline staff whose daily commitment makes this improvement possible. "Improving health outcomes is exactly why this Government has been so focused on responsible fiscal management. Careful management of the books is what allows us to keep investing in the services New Zealanders rely on most, while keeping taxes low. "There is still more work to do. Too many people are still waiting too long, and we will not stop until every New Zealander has timely access to care. With a record $32 billion annual investment, we are rebuilding the system around patients, holding it accountable, and driving better outcomes on the way to 2030."

Every district has reduced waits for elective treatment and specialist assessments, South Canterbury has become the first district in the country to meet the 2030 target for specialist assessments, and the South Island leads the country on childhood immunisations," Mr Brown says. "We know there is more work to do, and that is exactly why now is the time to build on this progress." These results mark the second annual milestone toward the 2030 health targets. Key results in the South Island from April to June include: Mr Brown says the latest figures show encouraging progress in ensuring more patients across the South Island receive their elective surgeries within four months, including hip and knee replacements and cataract surgery.
