The decision to enter into this contract is the latest step in a series of actions the DHB has taken over the past 18-24 months to reduce the number of people waiting for cardiac surgery . Initially the DHB is looking to send up to 10 patients, although the DHB may increase this number up to a maximum of 50 over time if required.
