McAuley Clinic CONNER circuit issue

We have not been able to communicate across the circuit from McNichols to Conner Street Clinic.  The circuit provider has been notified, and they are checking it out.  They did indicate there are some widespread phone issues they're aware of in the Detroit area, and this could be related. 

The outage will not affect eClinical functionality to CCS, Joy/Southfield, or Schulze locations.
