Healthcare

Our health system faces unprecedented challenges - increasing demand, rising costs, uneven quality, and misaligned incentives.  As government and industry initiatives attempt to address the challenges of building a modern, sustainable health system, the sector often lacks the capacity, capability and the access to best practice models that will enable such reform to succeed.

At PricewaterhouseCoopers our team of experienced professionals have worked in the health care sector as clinicians and managers, in quality improvement roles and in complementary areas such as HR, IT, finance, strategy and operations. They are supported by global best practices and our dedicated global healthcare research unit, the Health Care Research Institute (HRI). The HRI has been created so our clients can access the combined expertise of more than 4,000 health industry professionals who can help them tackle today’s issues.

Our health advisers provide expertise across the entire health continuum, including health insurers, accident compensation insurers, government funding bodies, private hospital groups, District Health Boards, Primary Health Organisations, NGO's, aged care providers, diagnostic providers, healthcare suppliers and employers.

How PwC can help you

National Bodies

We help national bodies including the Ministry of Health and Accident Compensation Corporation navigate challenges associated with policy, practice and shared services. We provide regulatory advice, finance management, governance models, design and testing for care models, capital asset management, guidance on resource management, system changes and national solutions.

District Health Boards (DHBs)

We work with DHBs across the country to improve patient flow, manage rostering, improve performance, review systems and processes, integrate with primary health care, manage the audit process, improve governance and financial turnaround.

Primary Health Organisations (PHOs)

We help PHOs to adapt to the changing demands placed on the primary health sector, helping business increase efficiencies and reduce costs, review effectiveness, manage workforce challenges, establish governance structures, plan effectively, develop new health care models and find ways to access necessary funding.

Aged Care Facilities

We work alongside aged care facilities to help them find new ways to improve efficiency and productivity, including reviews of facilities, strategies to increase occupancy, matching the needs of the community with the vision and values of the business, assessing internal controls, budgeting and business planning and management support.
