Rob Campbell: Former Health NZ chair says hospitals are in need of major technology upgrades - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

A former Health New Zealand chair is sounding the alarm about hospital hardware in need of an upgrade.

New reports confirm thousands of apps, a thousand servers, and a thousand devices around Health New Zealand hospitals are said to be fragile - in a released briefing to the Health Minister.

The briefing states technology can improve care.

Former Health Chair Rob Campbell says people just hope the issue goes away.
