There's suggestions private companies should build - and potentially run - our public hospitals.
1News reports Health NZ is urging the Government to consider private sector help, given the investment required for dozens of hospitals.
Former Health NZ chair Rob Campbell says he believes this is being raised now as a diversion.
"It's previously been held off because the very large projects - like the Dunedin Hospital - frankly, wouldn't attract a partner to do the kind of work that needs to be done."
