The "accountability-free" funding for general practice is fueling the decline in GP work hours and the significant decrease in the GP-to-population ratio, according to new report.

I wonder when NZ will move away from the quasi-free-market-but-funded-by-the-government system in health (and education). It leads to outcomes like this which are clearly inefficient. I’d like to see more centralisation.

    Yeah I think that’s becoming a more common experience. A lack of doctors makes things pretty difficult.
