EPCS is a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regulation that allows prescribers and pharmacies to process prescriptions for controlled substances. Under EPCS, prescribers use identity-based certificates to digitally sign ePrescriptions and pharmacies can validate those signatures to ensure authenticity before fulfilling a prescription for a controlled substance.
