We have now ran into this issue, i’ve filled the form out. This will be a problem as we are hoping to use the upcoming [healhcare worker api](https://digital.nhs.uk/developer/api-catalogue/healthcare-fhir-api) . Ideally the A005 and A008 endpoints would include the SDS ID of the referring clinician

Kind regards
