This is all excellent news; it is great to hear timelines for this being made public.
I can’t wait for some of those improvements to bed in - especially all of Health NZ | Te Whatu Ora being on the same Microsoft tenant!!!

Great news! Does anyone know whether the single email address will have some way of identifying where in the country someone is normally based? Ideally easily changeable for our itinerant workforce (RMOs)? There is a lot of movement of care across different sites and it helps with context at the moment knowing if someone is writing from my immediate environment vs elsewhere in the country. Not everyone does signatures (and they sometimes don’t come through) but some other tag system would be incredibly useful. Who does one feedback this to, @RMcBeth?
I’m actually trying to get to the bottom of that right now.
The user’s location is there as a field in the directory in the national tenant. Here is yours for example:
However, it seems to be difficult-to-edit HR data that feeds it, so it might not be all that reliable if one is dynamic.
Interesting! Technically ADHB no longer exists - so now we have regional names. Auckland is HNZAK I think? … not in wide use by any means, just something I spotted on teams setup. We still use ADHB as it is simply faster than Te Toka Tumai Auckland.

Hi Era I’m not entirely sure where best to direct feedback, but it’s James Allison who is running the show so presumably someone who works in his team - is there anyone on here who can point Era in the right direction? @jon_herries @eduddy maybe you can help?
