Hi All,

Many of you will have seen one of my presentations on the status of the national Health Information Platform.  
I want to make sure that CiLN are included as a key conduit for clinical engagement.

For those who haven’t seen an NHIP update the easiest starting point is probably the NZHIT Scott Arrol podcast here [https://anchor.fm/scott-arrol/episodes/EP47-And-then-Covid-happened------Darren-Douglass--General-Manager--Digital-Strategy-and-Investment--Data--Digital--NZ-Ministry-of-Health-els4pe](https://anchor.fm/scott-arrol/episodes/EP47-And-then-Covid-happened------Darren-Douglass--General-Manager--Digital-Strategy-and-Investment--Data--Digital--NZ-Ministry-of-Health-els4pe) There are also webcasts via HINZ and the NZ Telehealth Leadership Forum.

If you want to know more then drop me a line or suggest a better way to engage with CiLN.

Thank you, Darren.

We are certainly keen to be involved. As a community, we would be delighted to offer our input to aspects of NHIP. This can occur in several ways:

1. Informally here in the main CiLN Forum, where you or one of your Ministry of Health colleagues post a question or a request for specific feedback.
2. Via a survey or poll of CiLN members (or a subset of CiLN members), which can be rapidly deployed. I can help you with these.
3. Via a more formal arrangement with a CiLN working group. This working group can then bring things to our wider community as needed.

Good morning Darren,

We had the nHIP sector advisory panel established, that included CiLN representation- have you considered breathing life back into the SAP? That might support both clinical and sector engagement.
