Health report. Is it a problem of overspending or underfunding?
My #cartoon today #NZpol #HealthNZ #TeWhatuOra

ALT Cartoon, title: Health Report. A hospital ward, a woman bringing flowers and a nurse pushing a trolley. Dr Reti attending to a skeleton patient (labelled Te Whatu Ora), taking their pulse, and saying, “This is a clear case of overspend, not underfund. You should cut back” The patient says, “Are you sure you’re a doctor?”
