Some doctors have serious concerns about the lack of transparency coming from Te Whatu Ora / Health NZ, after the closure of District Health Boards.
Previously, the DHBs had an open door policy and shared papers prior to meetings. Te Whatu Ora's board chair, Rob Campbell, dismissed the concerns when talking to Morning Report yesterday.
Lower Hutt gastroenterologist and former member of the Hutt Valley DHB Dr Richard Stein is dismayed at those comments.
He spoke to Corin Dann.
