- ePrior Auth: The ePrior Auth tab within the eRx Center presents prescriptions for which a PA was automatically or manually indicated and printed or transmitted.

The ePrior Auth tab defaults to the logged in user on the current date. Each record is based on the date written. OP also uses the locations where a user is associated when determining what items to display. For example, if a practice has two locations with a provider that prescribes at both Location A and Location B and a nurse that works only at Location A, then the provider would see ePA workitems for scripts that went out from both locations while the nurse would only see ePA worklist items for prescriptions that went out from Location A (not Location B). The ePrior Auth tab also has a button labeled Worklist. By clicking this button, OP opens the entire worklist from within CompletEPA. - Cancelled: The Cancelled tab displays a list of prescriptions cancelled by a prescriber. The Cancelled tab is only visible for staff that have the cancel prescription permission.
