Number of infectious diseases physicians in NZ

Charles Smith made this Official Information request to Health New Zealand

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Charles Smith to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Charles Smith

Dear Health New Zealand,

Please supply me with a breakdown of the number of infectious diseases physicians in NZ employed or contracted by Health NZ and their FTE.

This should be expressed as the total FTE (full time equivalent) ID Physician (specialist) in each of the 19 districts and then further broken down by the full name of each specialist and their (Infectious Diseases) FTE. The hospital in which they are based should be stated e.g. Middlemore or Hutt and should be the means of categorising the data under the district heading. The total population served by each hospital and by each district should be included.

eg
Auckland district 6.7FTE Population served: 1,543,434
Middlemore 3.2FTE Population served: 454,654
Dr A 1.0
Dr B 0.9
Dr C 0.3
Auckland city 2.1FTE etc etc

I note that at least in one region (Nelson marlborough) ID Physicians contract via a PHO. These type of arrangeemnts should also be included.

Yours faithfully,

Charles Smith
