Starting Tuesday, Oct. 29, network access logins and email accounts (Outlook or Cloudmail) for all new team members will be automatically created by Information Systems with data provided by Human Resources.

Once network access and email is set up, that login information will be emailed to the team member's manager. The temporary, one-time passwords will be randomized. This password must be guarded and only given to the new hire (not forwarded through emails or shared).

This change provides more network security when user accounts are created and represents part of broader planned improvements to your network access processes.

Please note:

• Employees who receive TriHealth Connect (EPIC) training through Corporate Education will get their login information at the end of training. If a new hire receives their login information from their manager before TriHealth Connect training, they are not permitted to access or document in TriHealth Connect until training requirements have been fulfilled.
• If a new team member needs more computer access than a general login or an email account (i.e. other applications, shared drives, etc.) their manager must still complete an Electronic Login Request through LinkNet (Departments > Information Systems > Electronic Login Request).
• For contractors or other non-team members, managers still need to complete the Electronic Login Request form for any access.

If you have any questions, please contact the Help Desk at 513 569 5100.

In the coming months, look for further changes to network access processes that make our network more:

• Efficient - provide the right access at the right time
• Convenient - give users a single site to setup and authorize accounts
• Hassle-free - help avoid calls to the Help Desk with quick, easy service
• Secure - protect user information and avoid unauthorized user access
