The request was successful.

From: AS Van Wey (Account suspended)

Dear Health New Zealand,

According to Pae Ora (Healthy Futures) Act 2022, Health NZ is now the owner of all health records formerly held by all DHBs.

Would you please provide me with the email address in which Privacy Act requests are to be sent to Health NZ as I cannot find this information on your website. If this information is publicly available, then I request the web address to the information.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

AS Van Wey

Dear Health New Zealand,

This is a friendly reminder that you are will overdue to respond to my OIA request, which is the contact information for Privacy Act Request. I assume this was an oversight during the holidays, and not a deemed decision of refusal.

Yours faithfully,

AS Van Wey

Kia ora,
 
Privacy Act Requests can be sent to [1][email address]. However,
as patient medical records are not centralised, but are kept and
maintained in the region where healthcare was provided, requests are
forwarded to the associated region for processing. Alternately, requests
can be sent directly to a region with links to local health websites found
