ePACT2 is now available through the Data Hub
The Data Hub is the new place for your prescribing and dispensing data. It has clearer navigation and improved search, and we will add new content and features here over the coming months.
ePACT2 gives authorised users access to prescription data and allows you to:
- access easy to use interactive reports and dashboards
- look at high level data summaries down to individual prescription item and patient level detail
- build bespoke analysis
- export data from reports and dashboards
You can sign in to ePACT2 via the Data Hub. If you already use ePACT2, you will find the same dashboards and data you already use.

You can still access the ePACT2 reports using Oracle.
To support your initial and ongoing learning journey, we provide a range of free online training webinars and have also produced a wide variety of user guides and videos.

Understanding ePACT2 data
Data is available 6 weeks after the dispensing month.
An explanation of the fields held in the system is available on the Data Dictionary (Excel: 49KB)
You can use the age logic summary flowchart (PDF: 205KB) for information on how patient age is determined in ePACT2.
ePACT2 contains data down to single prescription level. If you have access to this level of data, remember that you cannot share confidential data outside of your organisation. For this reason, you should read and agree to the ePACT2 User Agreement as part of the registration process.
