Electronic prescription service (EPS)

The Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) is an NHS service that allows your Doctor Surgery to send your prescription(s) directly to your nominated pharmacy electronically. This means that you no longer need to visit your doctor’s surgery to pick up your prescription(s) and drop it off at the pharmacy.

How does the service work?

The service is simple. When a GP or other healthcare professional creates an NHS prescription, it is sent electronically to the pharmacy chosen by the patient. This means that the patient no longer has to take a paper prescription to the pharmacy. Instead, the pharmacy will have the prescription on their computer system.
