Additional information for digital leaders - March 2024

13 March 2024: Find out more about the NHS e-Referral Service URL change, NHSmail FastTrack Partnership programme, new Scan4Safety website and more.

NHS e-Referral Service (e-RS) – browser address change

From 12 April 2024, all health and care staff who access e-RS using the legacy URL (https://nww.ebs.ncrs.nhs.uk) will be directed to a new page that will require them to select an option to access e-RS on the new URL (https://ers.nhs.uk).

Please update and replace any instances of the legacy URL with the new URL in favourites and shortcuts, in line with the online guidance.

The system itself is not changing, simply the URL link used to access it.


NHSmail FastTrack Partnership programme now live

If your organisation uses the central @nhs.net tenant, you can join the NHSmail FastTrack Partnership programme. You will be paired with a dedicated partner team to help you fully utilise and benefit from Microsoft 365 products such as Intune, Phone Systems and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.

The programme is free to access until June 2026. Find out more and register for the programme.
