Kia ora Katy

Thank you for your request for official information for: 

"How much Senior Medical Officer (SMO) FTE is currently employed for each
department in each of the different (ex) DHB regions?
How much SMO FTE vacancies are there for each department in each of the
different (ex) DHB regions?
How many FSA (first specialist appointments) are provided by each
department each year in each of the different (ex) DHB regions?
How many follow up appointments are provided by each department each year
in each of the different (ex) DHB regions?
How many procedures are provided by each department in each of the
different (ex) DHB regions? If this needs to be further classified into
different procedural categories per department, this is fine.
How much SMO FTE is allocated to triaging each year for each department in
each of the different (ex) DHB regions?
How much SMO FTE is allocated to non patient contact clinical work (e.g
clinical admin/MDT) for each department in each of the different (ex) DHB
regions?
How much SMO FTE is allocated to non clinical administrative work for each
department in each of the different (ex) DHB regions?"

In order to provide you with the information requested, could you please
refine timeframe/specific information in order for us to collate the
information in a manner that is retrievable. This is a very broad
request, and we need to know what timeline the data is requested for, e.g.
Annual/Financial year 1 January 2022 – 31 December 2022. Please note that
we do not have DHBs anymore however, we can identify and collate
information by hospital areas if you can mention what specific areas you
want the information for.

Please note, under section 15 of the Official Information Act 1982, any
clarification or amendments made to a request within seven days after the
date it is received, that request may be treated as a new request and the
time limit for the response restarts. 

We look forward to receiving your response.
