NZ Telehealth Forum

Operating since 2010 the New Zealand Telehealth Forum promotes the use of telehealth as an enabler in the provision of equitable access to healthcare, while also improving convenience for patients, enabling more timely access to care, and supporting the efficient delivery of healthcare services. Our Kaupapa is funded by Health NZ | Te Whatu Ora - Data and Digital, and is led by a leadership group that includes clinicians, members, policymakers, planning and commissioning managers, ICT experts and (by invite only) industry representatives.  

Our vision is that telehealth is embedded across the health sector as a sustainable way to deliver healthcare in New Zealand.  

Our mission is to provide leadership in the use of sustainable models of care enabled by telehealth that supports equitable, patient-centred care.
