Ministry of Health


With the challenges pharmacy have had recently, it is sometimes hard to keep up with new rules and regulations surrounding ePrescribing. The Ministry of Health ePrescription Service webpage is a good source of information. Particularly relevant are the pages on:

  • new rules for electronic prescriptions
  • ePrescriptions for controlled drugs
  • signature exempt prescriptions, and
  • secure messaging



All these pages have documents which can be downloaded and printed, so they can be read and referred to when required.
