• Funding the provision of most health and disability services provided in Counties Manukau through service contracts with health and disability providers and non-governmental organisations
  
  
• Providing hospital based services for the population of Counties Manukau and some access to specialist or highly complex services for people who are referred from other DHBs
  
  
• Promoting, protecting and improving the health of the Counties Manukau population through the provision of health promotion, health education and evidence based public health initiatives.

Our Strategic Goal

We care about achieving health equity for our community.

Together, the Counties Manukau Health system will enable equity in access and outcomes for Maaori, Pacific and communities with health disparities.

We will measure the impact we have on healthy life years every year.  This is our commitment to act and be deliberate in our choices and priorities.

This means that people will live longer healthier lives in the community.
