Hon ANDREW LITTLE: Budget 2022 funding will grow primary healthcare teams around the country and allow GPs to work more seamlessly with services like physiotherapists, pharmacists, and social workers to offer greater care earlier and closer to home. GPs in high-needs areas are also being backed with $86 million of new funding over four years so they can offer more care through improved opening hours and more appointments. These are key parts of the Government's shift to ensure New Zealand's health system can provide quality care at the right time and in the right place while taking pressure off our hospitals in the rebuilt system.
