Tohu Toi Ora
We’re connecting Māori with culturally responsive and inclusive healthcare providers.
About this initiative
Research has shown that there are disparities and inequities for Māori in the health sector. That’s why nib have partnered with Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei to develop Tohu Toi Ora, a tool to help identify health providers supporting culturally positive healthcare experiences for Māori.
As we continue our journey to help address Māori health outcome inequities, we believe this is the right thing to do for our members, for Māori and for all of Aotearoa.
What is Tohu Toi Ora?
Tohu Toi Ora is an accreditation designed to recognise medical providers who we, together with Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, believe promote a culturally responsive and inclusive health care environment for Māori.
Toi Ora tick
Also called the Toi Ora tick, you will see this mark next to the name of accredited providers when you use our Find a Provider directory.
Towards better Māori health outcomes
Want your whānau, hapū, iwi or rōpū to be insured with nib?
Health insurance is one of the ways you can make it easier to manage your health and provides you and your whānau with support on your health journey. At nib, we can provide health insurance cover for individuals, families and larger groups.
Through Toi Ora we provide more than just health insurance, with a focus on improving Māori health outcomes through proactive healthcare, navigation and partnership.
