We have seen a lot of change in 2022 with the formation of Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand and Te Aka Whai Ora - Maori Health Authority. Digital health is one of six priority areas that the government has recognised as being crucial to the future transformation of the health sector. This will provide opportunities and challenges for us all. Attending your AGM gives you the chance to reflect on the year that has been and to learn about how the DHA will continue to support members to engage and contribute to the digital health ecosystem.
The DHA has had another very busy year and has undergone some big changes. It is always a privilege for us to be able to share with members what has occurred over the past 12 months and outline our plans for 2023.
