Webhealth
Webhealth has been specifically developed to provide access for people to
connect with Health and Social Services. This web-based approach builds on
the strengths of people and families to determine their support needs. Within the Webhealth website is Linkage. Linkage is a
partnership between an NGO, Pathways; primary health care, Pinnacle; and a
secondary provider/hospital, Health Waikato. It offers early intervention
services with a “one stop shop” in central Hamilton and New Plymouth.

The NAMI web site has made a major overhaul, boasting a new design, new content and an easier navigation system for finding resources at the site. See, especially, It's Healthcare, Not Welfare on the Oklahoma Health Care Authority recent report on a potential solution to meeting basic healthcare needs for many of Oklahoma's uninsured and Action Looms On Medicare Prescription Drugs Legislation in the Policy-Advocacy-Action section. A low graphics version of the site is also available.
