Abstract: Without the actions of Claire Matheson, Witness A, and Colleen Poutsma, the failure to provide adequate health care to thousands of New Zealand women might have gone unnoticed perhaps indefinitely. These three women belong to a special group of people - whistle-blowers, those who choose to disclose confidential and sometimes deeply personal information relating to some danger, fraud or other illegal or unethical conduct. Lisa Marriott investigates the economics of whistle-blowing and why it is important for maintaining quality in the health sector.
