For the next four years Turanga Health developed its culturally based business approach and style of operating. The M ori philosophy towards health is based on a wellness or holistic health model. Cultural elements like spending time to get to know people, family links, and long term planning resonate with whanau.
In 2002 Turanga Health took the first in a series of steps that would see it become the large scale proficient business it is today. It teamed up with seven general practices to form Turanganui Primary Health Organisation Turanganui PHO . In 2007 Turanga Health became this district’s first Maori health provider to earn accreditation. A major transformation happened again in July 2011 when Turanga Health took over the general practice at Te Karaka. Turanga Health is working hard to earn the trust of people living in the area and has increased enrolments to 1450.
In October 2013 Turanga Health won the Community Service Excellence Category of the Westpac Gisborne Business Excellence Awards drawing praise from the city’s leaders and cementing its validity as a specialised provider of health services. The role of Te Runanga o Turanganui a Kiwa or TROTAK Te Runanga o Turanganui a Kiwa or TROTAK was established in 1985 with the support and mandate of Rongowhakaata, Ngai T manuhiri and Te Aitanga a Mahaki iwi. TROTAK took up responsibility for providing a range of services including health services. Changes in the mid 90's saw the introduction of new health policy from Government which required that the purchasing of health services became distinct and separate to the provision of health services. Three Regional Health Authorities were established to fufil the purchasing role and the Trust became active participants by entering into an arrangement with the then Midland Regional Health Authority, to assist in the process of purchasing health services for iwi and Maori in the Tair whiti region.
With TROTAK already providing health services, the new purchasing role appeared to be in conflict with their new role. What then followed was the setting up of a separate health company by the Runanga to provide health services in Turanganui a Kiwa. Hence, Te Hauora o Turanganui a Kiwa Ltd or Turanga Health was established under the Companies Act 1993 on the 28th day of June 1996.
