64861 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister of Health: What actions, if any, have been taken in the quarter (April to June 2024) to implement the recommendation ‘Te Whatu Ora to review existing data analytics capability and capacity and consider the data governance and data quality processes required to enable robust measurement and monitoring of planned care service delivery’ as part of Te Whatu Ora Planned Care Taskforce Reset and Restore Plan?
Hon Dr Shane Reti: I am advised a national governance committee for data has been established. Health New Zealand’s planned care team meets weekly with the Health Analytics, Data and Digital, and National Collections teams to review data quality and processes, and to identify areas for improvement. Data quality is also monitored through Health NZ's national planned care dashboard.
