Due to disagreements between the Government and medical professionals, this vision was not realised. In 1941, the Government and medical providers concluded a series of arrangements known as the General Medical Service (GMS) benefits, which established a dual system of public and private healthcare services which would remain in place until 1983.<sup id="cite_ref-Health_system_reforms_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Health_system_reforms-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the 1970s, growing dissatisfaction with the quality and accessibility of the healthcare system led the <a href="/wiki/Third_Labour_Government_of_New_Zealand" title="Third Labour Government of New Zealand">Third Labour Government</a> to issue a white paper called <i>A health service for New Zealand,</i> which proposed a large-scale reform of the healthcare system. Labour subsequently lost the election to <a href="/wiki/Robert_Muldoon" title="Robert Muldoon">Robert Muldoon</a>'s <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_National_Party" title="New Zealand National Party">National Party</a> in the <a href="/wiki/1975_New_Zealand_general_election" title="1975 New Zealand general election">1975 election</a>. The Special Advisory Committee on Health Services Organisation (SACHSO) advocated establishing 14 "Area Health Boards" (AHBs), which combined the curative functions of the Hospital Boards with the preventative functions of the <a href="/wiki/Ministry_of_Health_(New_Zealand)" title="Ministry of Health (New Zealand)">Department of Health</a>'s district health offices. The <a href="/wiki/Third_National_Government_of_New_Zealand" title="Third National Government of New Zealand">Third National Government</a> piloted a trial AHB health scheme in the <a href="/wiki/Wellington_Region" title="Wellington Region">Wellington</a> and <a href="/wiki/Northland_Region" title="Northland Region">Northland</a> regions.

Between 1985 and 1989, the 27 existing hospital boards were restructured as AHBs. These entities were led by board members who were elected for three year terms concurrent with the <a href="/wiki/Territorial_authorities_of_New_Zealand" title="Territorial authorities of New Zealand">local council bodies</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Health_system_reforms_5-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Health_system_reforms-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Stuff_timeline_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Stuff_timeline-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1991, the incoming <a href="/wiki/Fourth_National_Government_of_New_Zealand" title="Fourth National Government of New Zealand">Fourth National Government</a> introduced legislation replacing the AHB board members with Government-appointed commissioners. These changes were part of a Government "green and white paper" entitled <i>Your Health and Public Health</i> which proposed privatising public healthcare services in New Zealand. In 1993, the Area Health Boards were replaced by 23 Crown Health Enterprises (CHEs), which operated as <a href="/wiki/State-owned_enterprise" title="State-owned enterprise">state-owned enterprises</a> and were responsible for providing health services. In addition, the Government established four Regional Health Authorities (RHAs) with purchasing responsibilities. The purchaser/provider split was meant to ensure that public hospitals did not have privileged access to purchasing resources over private hospitals.<sup id="cite_ref-Health_system_reforms_5-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Health_system_reforms-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Following the <a href="/wiki/1996_New_Zealand_general_election" title="1996 New Zealand general election">1996 election</a>, the governing National Party and its <a href="/wiki/New_Zealand_First" title="New Zealand First">New Zealand First</a> coalition partner merged the RHAs in 1997 into a national purchasing agency, the Health Funding Authority. Under the Health and Disability Services Amendment Act 1998, the Crown Health Enterprises were revamped as Hospital and Health Services (HHS). As part of the coalition governing arrangement, there was more emphasis on collaboration between health purchasers and providers while the HHS were reoriented to be less commercially focused with greater community input on hospital boards.<sup id="cite_ref-Health_system_reforms_5-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Health_system_reforms-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Stuff_timeline_4-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Stuff_timeline-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Formation">Formation</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=District_health_board&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Formation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Following the <a href="/wiki/1999_New_Zealand_general_election" title="1999 New Zealand general election">1999 election</a>, the incoming <a href="/wiki/Fifth_Labour_Government_of_New_Zealand" title="Fifth Labour Government of New Zealand">Labour-Alliance coalition government</a> launched an extensive revamp of New Zealand's healthcare system as part its of health election pledge.
