Strategic Approaches

The Board guides its decision making through applying a strategic approach, particularly because of the need tooperate within a financially constrained environment:

• Substitute, rather than supplementary, services;
• Upstream interventions, particularly selfmanagement strategies like exercise, diet and Whanau Ora;
• Reduce health inequalities, by targeting those with the highest need;
• Increase health gain per dollar spent;
• Intersectoral collaboration and cooperation;
• Evidence based decision-making;
• Being prepared to change the paradigm of how we deliver services (the "who" and the" how") so that we design services that progress our strategic direction; and
• Patient centred care.
