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

## eDispensation

### Information Models

#### Conceptual view

Components of a dispense and their representation as EHDS information models:

- Dispense: EHDSMedicationDispense
- Patient: EHDSPatient
- Dispenser: EHDSHealthProfessional
- Medication: EHDSMedication
- Usage instructions: EHDSDosage
- Location: EHDSLocation

Please note that dispense can only include one medication - therefore, in case of multi-line prescriptions, the dispense should reference the prescription item rather than just the full prescription.

### FHIR Implementation Guide

FHIR Implementation Guide is being developed in a cross-project working group lead by HL7 Europe and IHE (see working group information). Business and data requirements defined in Xt-EHR Task 6.2 are discussed further in the working group in order to gather feedback from the implementers. Approved requirements are adopted by HL7 Europe MPD FHIR IG.

Ongoing work:

- R4 FHIR IG
- R5 FHIR IG

### IHE Profile

FHIR-based IHE profile for this use case is in draft status, please see the IHE Medication Prescription and Dispense profile for more information.

IHE Profile has a global scope and is not part of Xt-EHR deliverable. However, the HL7 Europe / IHE joint working group (see above) allows mutually beneficial cooperation and early alignment.
