44349 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: What actions, if any, have been taken in the quarter (January to March 2024) to implement the recommendation ‘Ensure data are collected and reported nationally on CT, MRI and other outpatient radiology modalities’ as part of Te Whatu Ora Planned Care Taskforce Reset and Restore Plan?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised that Health New Zealand now reports nationally on CT, MRI, and other diagnostics such as colonoscopy and coronary angiography. This data is included in monthly performance reporting to Health New Zealand's leadership.
