Promote the NHS Electronic Prescription Service using Envisage

The Electronic Prescription Service is now available in a number of practices, and Duncan Graham, Communications Manager at Health and Social Care Information Service (HSCIC), explains the benefits of using Envisage to advise patients of this service:

“The Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) is being switched on in around 70 practices each week so we were interested in effective ways to get a short but important message over to patients in a timely way. We didn’t want to raise the expectations of patients who couldn’t get the service yet, so allowing a practice to decide when to show the video, usually from eight weeks before they start to offer the service, is ideal. Using a waiting room information system is a great way to communicate with patients and its saves the practice time explaining it to every patient.”
