Resource Profile: Standardized Medication Profile - MedicationStatement

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/smp/StructureDefinition/smp-medicationstatement Version: 1.0.0
Standards status: Trial-use Maturity Level: 1 Computable Name: SMPMedicationStatement

The description of a medication or drug that a patient is taking or prescribed. Or a medication or drug that a patient did take or was prescribed in the past. MedicationStatement can be created from a number of sources and may be anecdotal which can be useful in the recording of non-prescription, over-the-counter items. MedicationRequest and MedicationAdministration are a formal record of medications prescribed and given.

This profile supports the capture of medication adherence information within the MedicationStatement resource. Implementers SHOULD pre-adopt the FHIR MedicationStatement adherence extension as proposed for future FHIR releases.

  • The adherence extension SHOULD be included in MedicationStatement resources when information about a patient's adherence to a medication regimen is available.
  • The extension enables documentation of adherence status (e.g., 'taking as prescribed', 'not taking as prescribed') and, where applicable, the reason for non-adherence.
  • Systems SHOULD support the extension to facilitate interoperability and the exchange of clinically significant adherence data.
