Request for patient cost and coverage information for a prescribed medication

Response to a request for patient cost and coverage information for a prescribed medication

This profile constrains the Coverage resource for carrying the pharmacy benefit information required in the consumer real-time pharmacy benefit check process

This profile constrains the MedicationRequest resource to convey a subset of prescription information required in the consumer real-time pharmacy benefit check (RTPBC) process. The content specifies the prescribed product and quantity, and references the prescribing practitioner and the patient's preferred pharmacy.

This profile differs from the US Core MedicationRequest in that it doesn't set the encounter or dosageInstruction elements as Must Support, because clients in the exchange will typically be mobile consumer applications that do not posess this information, and because that information is not pertinent to this use case.

This profile constrains the Patient resource for carrying the limited patient information required in the consumer real-time pharmacy benefit check (RTPBC) process.

The profile differs from the US Core Patient profile in certain respects. It does not contain the us-core-race, us-core-ethnicity or us-core-birthsex extensions, and the Patient.communication.language and Patient.telecom elements are not set to Must Support; these variances reflects that clients in the exchange will typically be mobile consumer applications that do not posess this information, and that the information is not pertinent to this use case.

The RTPBC profile further constrains certain US Core and base elements in a manner that is compatible with the the US Core profile (e.g., tightening element cardinality and further limiting allowed terminology).

This profile builds on the US Core Organization to represent a pharmacy as used in the real-time pharmacy benefit check (RTPBC) process.
