New Zealand sees declining health in working-age adults, rising mental health needs, and growing care access issues, linked to social factors.
A New Zealand report reveals worsening health among working-age adults since 2011/12, with declining physical health, rising psychological distress—especially among youth—and doubled unmet mental health needs.
Over 25% of adults, including 30% of women, report unmet GP needs due to wait times.
The decline is linked to social factors like housing and income, not just the health system, with projections showing only 6.6% in excellent health by 2037.
Preventable hospital visits cost an estimated $8.6 billion annually.
Meanwhile, Manu Ora, a Māori-led clinic, won a top primary care award for its culturally responsive model, and The Fono, a Pacific-focused provider, reported profits while upgrading facilities to strengthen crisis readiness and community care.
