This initiative led by Jackie Edmond focuses on future-proofing clinical services by implementing innovative responses to workforce issues, maximizing the uptake of sexual and reproductive health technologies, and investing in innovative IT solutions. The approach involves collaboration across services to improve services for Rangatahi Māori. The project includes a National Contact Centre, phone and Skype consultations, and phone advice for health professionals to enhance access and reduce waiting times for appointments. Success is measured by increased Māori client base, positive client feedback, cost-neutrality, shorter waiting times, and renegotiated contracts with the Ministry of Health.
