EHDS Logical Information Models
0.4.0 - draft

EHDS Logical Information Models, published by Xt-EHR. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 0.4.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/Xt-EHR/xt-ehr-common/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

## Logical Model: Medication model

Official URL: http://www.xt-ehr.eu/fhir/models/StructureDefinition/EHDSMedication | Version: 0.4.0
Active as of 2026-02-23 | Computable Name: EHDSMedication

Logical model for prescribed/dispensed medication. The model is shared by statements, requests, dispensations, and administrations. Each of those may have different restrictions in a FHIR profile. The model is suitable for generic/virtual medications as well as branded/real products. The model aims to have basic alignment with ISO IDMP but it does not cover the full complexity needed for medication registries.

Usages:

- Derived from this Logical Model: Medication model obligations
- Use this Logical Model: Immunisation model, Medication administration model, Medication dispense model, Medication prescription model... Show 2 more, Medication use model and Service request model
