How should I set up prescribing cost centres and ensure endpoints are activated for Y-codes?

To set up prescribing cost centres and ensure endpoints are activated for Y-codes within EMIS Web, you need to follow several key steps:

Setting Up Prescribing Cost Centres

• Navigate to Configuration in EMIS Web.
• Select Organisation Configuration and click on your organisation name.
• Click on Edit and access the Prescribing Cost Centre settings.
• Here, you'll need to input the Cost Centre Code using the National Code and Authentication (NACS).

Activating Endpoints for Y-Codes

• Ensure that the GP Connect is enabled under the Organisation Configuration.
• Email deliveryoperations@emishealth.com to request the activation of endpoints with the EMIS Organisation ID and National Code (Y-code).
• Once activated, verify this by checking the GP Connect options in your EMIS settings. Make sure all necessary options are selected to allow prescribing and other functionalities to operate seamlessly.

"Activating endpoints for Y-codes simplifies secure communication with NHS services, ensuring efficient management of prescriptions and appointments."

These configurations help streamline operations within your network of practices, saving both time and resources by facilitating accurate and efficient information flow.
