Electronic Prescription Service Tracker - REST API

Overview

Use this API to track a patient’s prescriptions within the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) using our Electronic Prescription Service Tracker.

You can search for a list of prescriptions that meet your query parameters by providing: 

patient's NHS number (mandatory)

format (mandatory)

prescription date range (optional)

prescription status (optional)

prescription version (optional)

Once you find the prescription, or if you already know its details, you can retrieve it by providing:

prescription ID (mandatory)

format (mandatory)

issue number (optional)

For more details, see Introduction to Spine EPS Tracker.

This API is only for use when the end user is a healthcare worker, not a patient. You can vote to make it available to patients on our interactive backlog.
