Health New Zealand Te Whatu Ora is finding the balance between managing its existing operations, while fundamentally changing the way it operates, says the organisation’s chief transformation officer.
Patrick O’Doherty spoke at the HiNZ Digital Health Leadership Summit held in Wellington on May 14-15 where he said the key to transformation is a “marked change” and most organisations who claim to be doing transformation are actually trying to provide a better vision of what they have today.
“Getting a faster version of what we have got is not going to solve the fundamentals that we have from a systems perspective, we need to fundamentally reimagine what the health system looks like,” he told the audience.
“How do we reimagine Health New Zealand as a digital organisation, but within the context of a digital health ecosystem?”
