AU Base Implementation Guide
6.0.0-ci-build - CI Build

AU Base Implementation Guide, published by HL7 Australia. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 6.0.0-ci-build built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/hl7au/au-fhir-base/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

## Data Type Profile: AU PBS Prescriber Number

Official URL: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/StructureDefinition/au-pbsprescribernumber | Version: 6.0.0-ci-build
Standards status: Trial-use | Maturity Level: 2 | Computable Name: AUPBSPrescriberNumber

This identifier profile defines a Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) prescriber number in an Australian context (see PBS for further information). A PBS prescriber number, previously referred to as Medicare prescriber number in earlier versions of this implementation guide, is assigned by Services Australia under the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme to practitioners who are approved to prescribe PBS medicines under the National Health Act 1953.
