Question 1

What is EPS (Electronic Prescription Service)?

Accepted Answer

EPS (Electronic Prescription Service) allows patients to nominate a pharmacy where their prescriptions will be sent electronically. When a patient nominates a pharmacy, all their prescriptions from any GP practice are automatically sent to that pharmacy. This eliminates the need for paper prescriptions and makes the process more convenient for patients.

Question 2

What are EPS nominations?

How often is the EPS nominations data updated?

Question 5

What does "Biggest Winners" mean in the EPS leaderboard?

Accepted Answer

"Biggest Winners" refers to pharmacies with the largest increase in EPS nominations compared to the previous week. This shows which pharmacies are gaining the most new patient nominations, indicating growing patient loyalty and preference.

Question 6
