Actioning Medicines New Zealand


Date of publication: December 2007

Summary


Actioning Medicines New Zealand is the action plan for Medicines New Zealand – the New Zealand medicines strategy. It is not an exhaustive list of actions, but rather shows what can and will be done to deliver Medicines New Zealand outcomes.

This is a living document. The initiatives it contains will change over time.

Following on from Medicines New Zealand, Actioning Medicines New Zealand seeks to support the medicines system to deliver:
  • Quality, safe and effective medicines for New Zealanders
  • Access to the medicines New Zealanders need regardless of their individual ability to pay and within the government funding provided
  • Optimal use of medicines resulting in optimal health outcomes.

These outcomes will be implemented through:
  • cross-sector collaboration and stakeholder engagement
  • structures and systems that work well
  • a medicines system that has the capability (financial resources, workforce, infrastructure and knowledge and information) it needs.
