  2. Confluence management

Group expressed general lack of satisfaction with Confluence. Feel it should be noted that time is always a factor given the volunteer nature of this group and SIG participants generally.

IHTSDO will be employing a Clinical Engagement Lead in the coming months. May even be at the April business meeting.

Pharmacy SIG - Although not active at this time, efforts are underway to reestablish this group.
