Waikato District Health Board member Dave Macpherson said Health Minister Dr Jonathan Coleman was wrong to say last week the DHB had found savings to break even on its $32m 2017/18 draft budget deficit.
Macpherson said the board was still considering options to make the savings and would not sign off the budget until next month.
The savings plan includes:
• Convincing GPs across the region to triage patients at medical centres to avoid clogging Waikato Hospital with specialist assessments, a savings of $10m;
• Making data entry and other staff redundant and replacing them with robots and automated systems to reduce salaries to save $7m;
• Freeing up $10m in better theatre management;
• And speeding up patient flow through Waikato Hospital's emergency department, consistently one of the worst performing EDs for the Government's 6-hour wait target, to cut costs by $3m.
On technology, Hablous said the DHB would look at how it could be more efficient.
"For example using computer code to automate data entry that speeds up processes or moving to electronic ordering for laboratory tests rather than a paper system, to make life easier for our doctors."
