Details of efficiency gains and clarification of statement in December 2016 board minutes

H Hutchinson made this Official Information request to Auckland District Health Board

The request was successful.

From: H Hutchinson

Dear Auckland District Health Board,

The Ministry of Health has identified in a previous OIA release that since 2011/2012 there has been over 153 million dollars in "efficiency gains" made to ADHB.

In the December 2016 Board Meeting Minutes, there is reference to efficiencies made by the DHB as relating:

"…to personnel/FTE/vacancy management, bed management, Laboratory/Radiology efficiencies and supply chain and Funder reported savings"

Could definitions of these efficiencies be provided – specifically:

- What is meant by “personnel/FTE/Vacancy management” and what specific efficiencies have been made in this area?
- What is meant by “bed management” and what efficiencies have been made in bed management?
- What are the laboratory/radiology efficiencies which have been made?

Yours faithfully,

H Hutchinson
