dc.description.abstract |
This paper summarises a commissioned update, by the University of Auckland for 2012/13, of previous research on the shortfall in community medicines dispensed for Māori compared with non-Māori, adjusting for age, population and burden of disease—and what PHARMAC and the health sector needs to do about it. Although complexities and limitations affect interpretation, substantial and unacceptable inequities in medicines access for Māori remain, and are unchanged six years on. Their causes are likely many, complex and entrenched, needing an all-of-sector approach and beyond to address. Deeper understanding of systems and barriers is required, as well as pragmatic ways to monitor outcomes. PHARMAC is committed to eliminating inequities in access to medicines as one of its key priorities; everyone in the health sector has a role. |
