Electronic Prescription Service
The Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) is an NHS Service. It gives you the chance to change how your GP sends your prescriptions to the place you choose to get your medicines or appliances from. If you collect your repeat prescriptions from your GP, you will not have to visit your GP practice to pick up your paper prescription. Instead, your GP will send it electronically to the place you choose. It will also give you the choice to collect your prescription from a pharmacy that is near you or in our case get it delivered.
Is the Electronic Prescription Service Reliable, Secure And Confidential?
Yes absolutely. Your electronic prescription will only be seen by your GP practice, the Pharmacy and NHS prescription payment and fraud agencies that see your paper prescription now.
