The role of a PHE
The Equity for Whānau Agreement
Mahitahi Hauora is Northland’s largest Primary Health
Entity (PHE). We receive funding from the government,
which we pass on to our member general practices
enabling them to provide care and treatment for the
enrolled population. We also fund a range of regional
health programmes and services in collaboration with
communities, iwi and various other health and social
care organisations.
A signi昀椀cant proportion of our enrolled patients are
Māori, many are living in rural areas, in high levels of
deprivation, and have complex health needs. We are
dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of
communities in Tai Tokerau, with a particular focus on
equitable health outcomes for our Māori, Pasi昀椀ka and
other priority populations. This is reflected in the way
we support our member general practices.
Mahitahi Hauora partner general practices receive
capitation and other flexible funding through our Equity
for Whānau Agreement. The agreement sets out clear
accountabilities for improving equity and outcomes for
priority groups across three key areas: Access, Clinical,
and Experience of Care, which they report on quarterly.
