Concepts
This code system https://fhir.nhs.uk/England/CodeSystem/England-PFSPrescriptionOrderingParameter defines the following codes:
| Code | Display | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| preferred-performer | Preferred performer | The preferred performer to dispense the prescription. |
| sent-to-eps | Sent to EPS | The prescription request has been sent to EPS to be fulfilled. |
preferred-performer
The preferred performer code is to be used when the patient wants the prescription to be dispensed by a one-off pharmacy (not their nominated one on the Personal Demographics Service (PDS)).
This code should be added to the Task.Input upon making the request.
sent-to-eps
This is to indicate that the prescription request has been sent to EPS in order to be dispensed. This will enable tracking via EPS using the corresponding ID.
