The Logical Access privilege allows the selected user the ability to
administer EPCS (Electronic Prescription of Controlled Substances) capabilities
to qualified practitioners. At least two users need to be assigned the
Logical Access privilege before the EPCS Prescriber Authorization functionality
can be accessed. Likewise, at least one of the users must be an IdenTrust
Token holder and a practitioner who is a DEA registrant in good standing.
There are two levels of privilege for the Logical Access privilege: None (cannot administer EPCS capabilities
to qualified practitioners) and Authorized
(is authorized to administer EPCS capabilities to qualified practitioners).
When a user is given the Logical Access privilege, they are automatically
added to the Controlled Substance Daily Report Notification distribution
list and will receive a high priority To-Do List Message every day with
a subject of "REQUIRED: Controlled Substance Daily Incident Report
Reminder." When the user double-clicks the message, the system will
open the EPCS
Auditing
dialog to display the daily incident log. The log will default to the
specific provider and for the last calendar month, however, these can
be changed as needed.
Use the following steps to configure the Logical Access privilege for a
user.
Click Edit >
System Tables > Users.
In the Users dialog, double-click the User
you want to configure the Logical Access privilege for.
Click the Privileges
tab.
Highlight the Logical
Access privilege, and then click the Authorized
radio button.
When finished, click the OK
button.
