A systematic search was performed across MEDLINE, SCOPUS, and CINAHL databases, supplemented by grey literature searching. Included studies focused on children and young people up to 24\u2009years, involved telehealth interventions, and were conducted in New Zealand primary care or community settings. Two reviewers independently screened records and extracted data. The Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool was used for quality appraisal. Findings were synthesised thematically.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Twelve studies were included from 259 initial records. Three main themes emerged: enablers, barriers, and acceptability\/feasibility. Enablers included improved healthcare access, reduced time and travel costs, enhanced care coordination, and strong therapeutic relationships. Barriers encompassed limited access to devices and reliable internet, privacy concerns, and perceived loss of care quality. Telehealth was generally acceptable and feasible across various paediatric services, though effectiveness varied by consultation type. Evidence specifically addressing M\u0101ori children and young people was notably limited.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Telehealth shows promise for improving access to paediatric community health services in New Zealand but risks exacerbating digital inequities.
