Te Tai Tokerau Primary Health Organisation (Te Tai Tokerau PHO) works with local providers in the Southern Bay of Islands, Kerikeri, and the Far North to support the delivery of high quality primary health services, and with other Northland PHOs to improve health outcomes for the region. Te Tai Tokerau PHO covers a wide area with many rural practices, has an enrolled population of approximately 43000 people, and is funded through Northland District Health Board and Te Tai Tokerau MaPO.

Te Tai Tokerau PHO aims to support and develop the professional and quality aspects of general practice, by providing education, clinical and information systems support and advice to all health professionals in the organisation. 

Te Tai Tokerau PHO is also committed to assisting in the creation of the new infrastructure and relationships required to support the community focus of PHOs, with the aim of improving health outcomes and reducing inequalities.

We see the move to PHOs as an opportunity to make an already successful primary health provider network even more effective. General practice will always be a cornerstone of community based health care, and building closer alliances between community based services will give real benefit to the community.
