Manage your Hardware Token (Procentive)

Prescribers order a Hardware Token as part of the EPCS Registration process. The Hardware Token is a One-Time Password (OTP) device that can be used to authenticate a transmission for a controlled substance prescription.  It typically takes 3-5 business days to receive the hardware token.

Before you Begin: Complete EPCS Registration Part 1: Verify Prescriber Information 

Jump to Section: [Add & Activate the Hardware Token] [Deactivate the Hardware Token]

NOTE: Although it is not required, we strongly suggest you activate your Hardware Token. If you do not, and are unable to use your phone to authenticate a transmission for a controlled substance, your EPCS account will be deleted. You will need to pay for a new license and go through the EPCS Registration Process again. Most providers Use the Authy App on their phone as their preferred OTP device and have the Hardware Token as a backup.

Deactivate the Hardware Token

A Hardware Token should only be deactivated if it is lost or broken. Once a Hardware Token is deactivated, it can not be used again.

NOTE: Never click the Revoke Account button in the EPCS Device Management section. Once an account has been revoked, if a provider needs to transmit a controlled substance via NewCrop, they will need to pay for a new license and go through the EPCS Registration Process again.

1. Click the EPCS Device Management link from the EPCS User Controls section of the Admin tab.
   
   
   
   
2. Click the Deactivate Token button in the Manage Token section. A pop-up window asks you to confirm the action. 
   
   
   
   
3. Select a Reason for deactivating the token and click the Deactivate Token button.
