Virtual Testing Groups Posted by Posted by Loren Savage on 22 December 2017 Posted on: 22 December 2017

2017 has been a big year for the disability sector. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to System Transformation through leadership groups, the co-design group, working groups, forums, conversations and emails.

The System Transformation team has sent out information to virtual testing groups on:

• Disability information frontend

• Capability building funding mechanism for disabled people and families/ whānau

• Information tools, pathways and processes

• EGL team and system capability

• System responsiveness

• Provider analysis and capability

• Environmental support services.

In mid-January, we expect to send out information to virtual testing groups on:

• Network building

• Interface with ACC

• Interface with Health

• Interface with Oranga Tamariki

• Interface with Education

• Interface with the Ministry of Social Development

• High and complex.

We will be seeking feedback up until the end of March 2018, and any feedback received by Friday 9 February will be considered to feed into advice to Ministers in February.

You can still join a virtual testing group so please email STfeedback@moh.govt.nz if you wish to be added to a group. You can find the list of virtual testing groups here http://www.enablinggoodlives.co.nz/system-transformation/transformation-papers/system-transformation-updates/work-streams/ . Each different project has its own virtual testing group.

Please note that the whole System Transformation team is taking a break between 22 December and 8 January 2018, but we will action any requests from 9 January 2018.

On behalf of the System Transformation team, we wish you all the very best for the festive season and look forward to being in contact again early next year.

Kind regards,

Sacha O’Dea
