PRIME enrolment dates
RPNs and LPNs: Even if you are only "pulling" a patient record for a practitioner and not viewing PharmaNet info, you need to enrol in PRIME.
To maintain access to PharmaNet B.C. physicians and those who support them (e.g. MOAs), must enrol in PRIME by August 15, 2023
Last updated: July 26, 2023
All PharmaNet users
- If you are new to work that requires PharmaNet, enrol in PRIME now
- If you are accessing PharmaNet and are not enrolled in PRIME, enrol immediately, or your access to PharmaNet will be unauthorized*
*Physicians have until August 15, 2023, and optometrists can enrol as of August 16, 2023
Independent PharmaNet users
Anyone who accesses PharmaNet on behalf of an independent user must enrol in PRIME as well.
Important: PRIME automatically uploads your name as it appears on your BC Services Card. If your regulatory college provides a different name to the Ministry of Health, please use the Preferred Name fields to enter the one your college sent, exactly as they sent it (including punctuation) and ensure the names are in the correct fields (first name, middle name, last name). This will prevent delays with your PRIME enrolment. If you are unsure which name you should enter, please contact your college to confirm.
