Description

The Health Commerce System (HCS) is your gateway to secure, 24/7 communication with the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH)—accessible from any internet-connected device, including mobile phones. But are you making the most of it?

Join us as we explore how you and your users interact with critical applications, stay informed with essential communications, and navigate key system features. You’ll gain insider tips on managing roles, accessing important resources, and knowing exactly who to contact when you need assistance. Plus, our speaker will highlight lesser-used applications that could be game-changers for your workflow.
