EPIC Auto verification: A few quick questions

1.  Are you an EPIC site and using or considered using  the auto verification functionality? 

2.  If you are using auto verification, where do you use it e.g.. PACU, ER etc.?

3.  If you are not NOT using auto verification can you tell me how long it takes for a pharmacist to verify orders in PACU or ER?  Will the nurses override if the pharmacist verification is slow?

Thanks.  Tom
