At the upcoming INTEROPen Meds learnathon and hackaton, EPS will be discussing a query API which allows access to patients prescriptions and dispenses known to EPS. (See this for some early concepts https://simplifier.net/guide/DigitalMedicines/NHSDigital-MedicationRequest-duplicate-2#search)
For a supplier I’m working with it will be possible to get a list a repeat medications (from EMIS Partner API/IM1, GP Connect or EPS) and the patient will be able to request a refill (using EMIS Partner API/IM1).
Ideally I would like to be able to track the progress via EPS.
To do this I’m after the EPS identifier. GP Connect has this in the identifier section MedicationRequest resource | gpconnect
(which is either https://simplifier.net/guide/DigitalMedicines/NHSDigital-MedicationRequest-duplicate-2#identifier or https://simplifier.net/guide/DigitalMedicines/NHSDigital-MedicationRequest-duplicate-2#groupIdentifier in EPS)
Can you get EPS identifiers via EMIS Partner API/IM1, the supplier will not want to swap to GP Connect for this one field.
