The announcement comes as the industry is preparing for changes regarding controlled substances.

“The DEA rules regarding narcotics and controlled substance distribution are changing in 2019,” Dr. Brent Myers, Chief Medical Officer for ESO said. “This partnership will make sure our customers are prepared for upcoming rule changes in how controlled substances are stored, tracked and accounted.”

NarcBoxes are typically installed at a station or in a vehicle, and provide security enforcement, including:

Information is transmitted via wifi to the NarcBox secured server
Single or dual authentication is available via three methods: five-digit PIN, RFID card or biometric finger scan
Time, date and medication stamped information recorded each use
