Introduction
Tēnā Koutou | Greetings,
The National Optimal Use of Medicines Research Project is being conducted by Synergia and Shea, Pita and Associates throughout 2025.
This project has been commissioned by the Ministry of Health | Manatū Hauora and is overseen by the National Medicines Steering Group.
The project is looking to create:
▪ a current state assessment of optimal use of medicines in New Zealand | Aotearoa
▪ a road map for how to achieve the future state required to optimise use of medicines
This includes understanding the medicines landscape in New Zealand as a system through local and international evidence, medicines data collection and use in New Zealand, and understanding the value that the optimal use of medicines provides.
Part of this work includes key stakeholder consultation, which this survey contributes to.
We appreciate your support of the consultation. All information you share will remain anonymous and used solely for this consultation. We may use AI tools—secured within our internal systems—to help analyse the responses.
