Kia ora tātou 
Have you ever wished there was a better way to find Aotearoa’s key health quality measures? If so, you’ve come to the right place 
We’re moving into a new phase of development for the Measures Library soon 
To make sure we’re headed in the right direction, we need to pick your 
Te Tāhū Hauora (you might previously have known us as the Health Quality and Safety Commission) is leading this work, in partnership with measure publishers across the sector.
So what’s it even for, I hear you ask? Don’t we have a complicated enough measurement ecosystem as it is? 
Because the Measures Library is not designed to be an intelligence or benchmarking tool, I like to think of it as a dégustation-only restaurant, designed for health sector measure publishers to showcase their menu; you know where to go to sample what’s out there and if you like something you see, you can head off to the measure publisher’s ‘restaurant’ to get the full experience 
Our current menu is very limited - we’re a small but mighty team, currently comprised of 2.5 FTE (myself included), and have been mainly focused on getting some foundational pieces of the library in place. Suffice to say, what you will see is only a taster of what’s to come in the future 
That said, what we develop will only be as valuable as our users perceive it to be. Our primary audience is health analytics, quality improvement, and research-minded folks, however it’s a publicly accessible tool and we’re mindful that we may well have all-comers wanting to use it in the future 
With this in mind, if you’ve got this far, we’d be ever-so-grateful if you could take it one step further and complete the user acceptance testing survey we are running - link here.
This will be up until the end of June, and you’ll see it advertised in our upcoming newsletter too (you can subscribe to these here as well 
If you’d be so kind as to share it around your networks also, that would be fantastic!
Of course, do feel free to start up a convo here, although the more info we can capture in the survey itself, the better 
Ngā mihi maioha e te whānau
Mauri ora!
we haven’t made a point of advertising it’s existence much as yet seeing as it’s in a very early stage, but will be more promo to come. Hopefully word of mouth will get around once we’ve got more measures in there and have enhanced the user experience as well.
