The 2022 Health and Independence Report presents an overview of the state of public health in Aotearoa New Zealand for the 2022 calendar year. It does this by presenting data from a range of sources. It complements the Ministry`s Annual Report, which includes detailed information about the strategic direction of the health and disability system and measures of its performance and impact.
The report contains a range of information about the population, health measures, determinants of health, and the COVID-19 pandemic. It highlights the ongoing health inequities and how Māori, Pacific peoples, disabled people and socioeconomically disadvantaged groups generally experience worse health outcomes than other New Zealanders.
