How do I link my website to emc pi portal?
When you create prescribing information in the submission site it will display a unique URL for the PI. Add this to your digital promotional material or you can create your own branded link using a redirect service.
Do I need to update my PI if the SmPC changes?
emc pi portal will always use the most recent version of the SmPC that is available on emc. If an updated SmPC is published on emc, it will automatically display within emc pi portal. This saves time and resources that would be required to update separate digital prescribing information.

Newly created or updated prescribing information will be available on the consumer site within a few minutes of it being published through the submission site.
What price should I use?
Section 4.2 of the PMCPA code of practice describes the pricing criteria. Most companies use the 'Basic NHS Cost' so that is displayed in the price table on the consumer site.
