This profile sets minimum expectations for a MedicationRequest resource in the context of a patient summary in an Australian context. It is based on the AU Core MedicationRequest profile, and applies the additional requirements from MedicationRequest (IPS).

See Comparison With Other National and International IGs for a comparison between AU Patient Summary (AU PS) profiles and profiles in other implementation guides.

Profile Specific Implementation Guidance

  • See the guidance on implementing the MedicationRequest resource in AU Core.
  • When populating MedicationRequest.medicationCodeableConcept producers SHALL correctly populate MedicationRequest.medicationCodeableConcept.coding with either a code from Australian Medication or PBS Item Codes, or both, if a coded value is known and MAY populate with a code from another code system.
    • Producers MAY populate with only text if no coded value is known.
  • The MedicationRequest resource can represent the clinical indication as a code with MedicationRequest.reasonCode, or a reference with MedicationRequest.reasonReference to a Condition or other resource.
    • Although both are marked as Must Support, producers are not required to support both a code and a reference, but they SHALL support at least one of these elements
    • A consumer SHALL support both elements
  • The MedicationRequest resource SHALL NOT be used to represent that a patient is not currently taking any medications; systems SHOULD use the MedicationStatement resource following the profile specific implementation guidance in AU PS MedicationStatement.
