Primary health organisations
Primary health organisations (PHOs) ensure the provision of essential primary health care services.

Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora contracts Primary Health Organisations (PHOs) to provide primary health services within a certain geographical area.
PHOs manage contracts to general practice that provide subsidised health care for people who are enrolled with a general practice team. Most people in New Zealand are enrolled with a general practice and a PHO.
PHOs provide other health services to support primary healthcare provision in their communities to coordinate a seamless continuum of care for people.
How do PHOs align to the Health NZ regions?
