Electronic Prescribing of Controlled

Substances (EPCS)Good news! The recent NCPDP upgrade means that we are almost

ready to enroll providers in EPCS. This has been a commonly

requested upgrade, so we are pleased to provide it. Our clinician

informaticists are currently being enrolled and testing the workflow.

The enrollment process is straightforward, but time-intensive; it

requires face to face confirmation of identity with the clinician and

their photo ID, and installation of the EPCS app on a mobile phone (a

limited number of keyfobs will be available).

With the current projects going on at Children’s, it will take the

Informatics team some time to complete this enrollment work. We can

accelerate the work by attending department meetings or other forums

to present the process and complete enrollment with you. We hope

you’ll invite us to join your team’s meetings, so we can bring this

powerful new feature to everyone as soon as possible.

St. Paul Anesthesia Going Live in the EMR The Anesthesia Electronic Record will go live for the St. Paul campus

on January 21st! The Minnetonka and Minneapolis campus will follow

in the upcoming months.

The move from paper to electronic charting will provide a more

readable copy of the Anesthesia Record and provide the information

earlier to all clinicians. Once finalized, Anesthesia Records can be

found under the Documents section of the Workflow Summary or

under Notes.
