Helpful Tips
RX Routing and Narcotics at Discharge
Providers without EPCS privileges (most commonly Residents) need a second signature for e-prescriptions of narcotics at discharge
- Residents can order narcotics when a patient is admitted under the permit of the hospital.
- In order for a resident to prescribe narcotics at discharge (as discharge orders are outpatient prescriptions), they must have a DEA Number and be a registered EPCS user.
- To request EPCS access, please open an Imprivata EPCS ServiceNow Ticket.
- Reminder: Prescriptions requiring second signature (such as narcotics) are not active and not received by the pharmacy until they are second signed by an authorizing provider, such as the attending.
- Whoever is ordering the narcotic medication should immediately contact the second signing provider to prevent delays with activating narcotics prescriptions at discharge.
- If the second signature has not been completed, the retail pharmacy will not receive the narcotic prescriptions.
