Welcome to the sixth NZ Healthcare Congress hosted by the Medical Technology Association of NZ (MTANZ) and NZ Health IT (NZHIT).

The Healthcare Congress is part of the HealthTech Week, which is run in collaboration with the Consortium for Medical Device Technologies (CMDT).  

The programme this year features many of the perennial issues and the opportunities that our combined industries face; fostering innovation, securing market access and providing value to healthcare stakeholders. In particular, consumers of health services are requiring a more individualised approach to their care whilst at the same time the health system has to determine the longer term future of healthcare balanced with the ability to define and fund the most appropriate models of care for the New Zealand population.

Hence, this year’s Congress theme of “Technology Enabled Healthcare” has been chosen to purposely focus all of us on technology-based solutions positioned as a key enabler to support the   provision of health services; both now and into the future.  

We look forward to welcoming you to the New Zealand Healthcare Congress 2016.
