Description
About Wairarapa DHB
The Wairarapa District Health Board was created on January 1 2001 after the Government passed legislation to change the way the health sector worked to promote decentralised accountability for the health status of each area A total of 21 district health boards now manage funding for their particular regions replacing the functions of the defunct Health Funding Authorities This has created more local focus on the use of Government money allocated for essential health and disability services
