Surescripts

Surescripts E-Prescribing

Routes electronic prescriptions between prescribers and pharmacies over the NCPDP SCRIPT standard (version 2023011), supporting NewRx, RxRenewalRequest/Response, RxChangeRequest/Response, RxTransfer, RxFill, CancelRx, and Status/Error/Verify transactions, plus Electronic Prescribing for Controlled Substances (EPCS). Delivered via certified EHR and pharmacy system integrations, not a public REST endpoint - the transaction set is documented in the E-Prescribing Companion Guide on the Surescripts Developer Portal.

Modeled, no public reference. Surescripts offers this API through a partner, certification or contract program and publishes no public reference for it. API Evangelist drew its shape from Surescripts's own material, so the endpoints on this page are a model, not the provider's contract.
