Canadian Baseline
1.2.0 - CI Build Canada flag

Canadian Baseline, published by HL7 Canada - FHIR Implementation Work Group. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 1.2.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7-Canada/ca-baseline/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: MedicationRequest Profile

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/ca/baseline/StructureDefinition/profile-medicationrequest Version: 1.2.0
Draft as of 2024-08-09 Computable Name: MedicationRequestProfile

Proposed constraints and extensions on the MedicationRequest resource. Generated as a first step toward creating a set of Canadian Baseline FHIR profiles.

This profile was generated from HL7 StructureDefinition on 2019-03-28 and constrained during a review of US Core against Canadian sources.

Key differences from USCoreR4 MedicationRequest:

  • MedicationRequest.medication updated:
    • CodeableConcept binding to ValueSet-prescriptionmedicinalproduct
    • Reference to profile-medication
  • MedicationRequest.subject reference updated to profile-patient
  • MedicationRequest.requester reference updated to profile-practitioner
