The MMPO is now offering midwife members the ability to manage their maternity care data and claiming electronically. This system is built around the requirements of Section 88 and the need of midwives to have a reliable system of data capture.

Cost of the system

There is a single license fee of less than $500.00 per year associated with this system. However, if there is more than one midwife using this license the cost may be slightly more. Please contact the IT Facilitator office@mmpo.org.nz to discuss the prices and feasibility of transitioning onto the remote practice system.
