You must ensure the following:
  • The ePCS authentication method is set up in universal and user preferences in System Administrator. EPCS Authentication Method for ePrescribing must be set as IdenTrust.
  • The Identrust Mobile Authentication Service (MAS) application is installed on your device.
You can use IdenTrust MAS authentication method to perform authentication while prescribing Controlled Substances (CS) medication.
