About this service

The Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) allows prescribers to send prescriptions electronically to a dispenser, such as a pharmacy, nominated by you the patient. This makes the prescribing and dispensing process more efficient and convenient for patients and healthcare workers.

EPS is already widely used in primary care with over 95% of all prescriptions in England now being produced electronically
EPS is not a clinical prescribing system. It is only responsible for managing the workflow of prescriptions from prescribers to dispensers
EPS is not strictly mandated, but it is strongly recommended for use by prescribing and dispensing services

Benefits of EPS include:

prescribers can process prescriptions more efficiently
dispensers can reduce paper use and improve stock control
dispensers reduce the risk of dispensing errors compared to hand-written prescriptions
patients can collect repeat prescriptions from a local pharmacy without visiting their GP
patients can manage their nominated pharmacy and track prescriptions in the NHS App
