Important Announcement from Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Pikiao Health & Owhata Medical Centre
Kia ora whānau,
As many of you are aware, the cost of living continues to rise across Aotearoa. This increase affects everything from supplies and medical equipment to general operational costs. To ensure we can continue providing high-quality, culturally grounded healthcare services to our community, there will be a price increase coming on 1st April 2026 .
We understand that any rise in cost can be challenging, and we want to reassure everyone that this decision wasn’t made lightly. Our priority remains the health and wellbeing of our whānau — maintaining accessible, safe, and reliable healthcare for all who come through our doors.
Over the next year, we’ll be working hard to keep these changes as fair and manageable as possible. We appreciate your ongoing support, understanding, and trust as we adapt to these economic challenges together.
Ngā mihi nui,
The team at Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Pikiao Health & Owhata Medical Centre
