Abstract
The health of Rainbow people (an umbrella term for people who are transgender or gender diverse, not straight/heterosexual, and who are intersex),1 has until now largely been ignored in government health policy.2 This has changed with the release by Te Whatu Ora and Te Aka Whai Ora of Te Pae Tata: Interim New Zealand Health Plan,3 which details priority areas to improve health outcomes and equity for all New Zealanders. Rainbow people are specifically mentioned in Te Pae Tata as a key population (Table 1). Although this commitment to enhancing Rainbow people’s health and primary health care is welcomed, in this Viewpoint, we offer further considerations for ensuring Te Pae Tata delivers on its intentions.
