1.0 StructureDefinition-au-localprescriptionidentifier

AU Local Prescription Identifier [FMM 2]

This identifier profile defines a local prescription identifier (sometimes referred to as prescription number) in an Australian context. A local prescription identifier is an organisation’s identifier for a prescription in that organisation’s local system set of prescriptions.

A local prescription identifier allows linking of a prescription to a system’s local identifier.

Extensions

No extensions are used in this profile.

Usage Notes

It is preferable that an organisation uses their own local system identifier namespace but if that is not available then an organisation can use their HPI-O to construct a legal globally unique identifier system for their local identifiers.

See the Australian Digital Health Agency’s R4 FAQ for guidance on constructing an HPI-O scoped[1] local prescription identifier.

Examples

Prescription for Stribild with concurrent supply

Prescription for paracetamol + codeine

Prescription for Reaptan
