EPS R2 Phases
The roll out of EPSR2 is divided into 3 separate phases which determine how prescriptions are produced (ie electronic/dual).
- Phase 3 (Deployed Disabled) - is the default initial setting which behaves as per EPSR1 with the following additional functions available:
- Nomination of dispensing contractors.
- By default, prescription is Dual - paper is legal entity.
- Prescription Manager changes.
Phase 3 (Deployed Disabled) is automatically enabled for existing EPS 1 practices.
- Phase 3 - By default, prescription is electronic with token. The message is legal entity. Your ICB will work closely with your practice to assist you with the transition to EPSR2 Phase 3.
- Phase 4 - By default, prescription is electronic only. The message is legal entity and you are able to send prescriptions irrespective of nomination. Activation details for Phase 4 to be confirmed by NHS Digital.
