RNZCGP Quality Symposium Starts
WELLINGTON – 12 February 2010 – The Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners’ annual Quality Symposium opened in Wellington this morning.
Health Minister Tony Ryall opened the symposium with a presentation on the future direction of quality in the New Zealand health system, and announced the establishment of a Quality and Safety Improvement Commission, a new clinician-led agency independent of the Ministry of Health.
“We’re delighted the Minister is focussed on clinician-led quality care for patients. We look forward to working with all the major stakeholders to strengthen high-quality, safe and effective general practice and primary care,” College President Harry Pert said.
