Hon PEENI HENARE (Associate Minister of Health (Māori Health)): Budget 2022 provides an additional $30 million over four years to support Māori primary and community care provider development through the Māori Provider Development Scheme (MPDS). This is the biggest uplift to the MPDS since it was established in 1997, and it will help secure the primary and community care innovation developed by Māori health providers during the COVID-19 pandemic, and will help them transition those new capabilities into the new health system. The funding will also provide back-office support to providers and help them sustain their capital infrastructure, and it will support the hiring and retention of a qualified and trained workforce in the development of new service delivery methods specifically for Māori, which we know make a big difference to how our community engages with the health system.
