AU Core Implementation Guide, published by HL7 Australia. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 3.0.0-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-core/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

This profile sets minimum expectations for a Medication resource to record, search, and fetch medications associated with a patient. It is based on the AU Base Medication profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the Medication when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in an Australian context.
In AU Core a Medication resource is used within the context of a referencing resource: MedicationAdministration, MedicationDispense, MedicationRequest, or MedicationStatement resource.
See Comparison with other national and international IGs for a comparison between AU Core profiles and profiles in other implementation guides.
The following are supported usage scenarios for this profile:
