Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: What progress, if any, has been made in the quarter January to March 2024 to ‘Scale and adapt population health digital services developed to support the COVID-19 response to serve other key population health priorities’ under section 3.7 ‘Strengthening our system enablers’ within Te Whatu Ora’s Te Pae Tata: Interim New Zealand Health Plan 2022?

Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised that during the January to March 2024 quarter, the My Health Record has been released with updated Immunisation register data feeds. Work continued on decommissioning of Covid related systems. Technology, which utilises the Covid technology platform, was released to support the release of the Aotearoa Immunisation Register (AIR). This included the AIR Orchestration Integration, Population Register, New-born Enrolment Ecosystem (enrolment, outreach, relationships, My Heath Account Workforce), and Vaccination Document generation. I am further advised that since the quarter January to March 2024 quarter, Meningococcal Disease and Measles have been added to the Notifiable Disease Management System.
