Usage Notes

Profile specific implementation guidance:

• When identifying a medication, this resource can use either a code or refer to a Medication resource.
• If making use of MedicationRequest.code, this profile includes coding as:
  • PBS Item Code - Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme coding, claiming context is not relevant as medicine coding
  • Medication Package Global Trade Item Number - Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) physical product reference
  • AMT Medicines - Australian Medicines Terminology, national drug terminology
  • MIMS Package - commonly used medicine coding
• If a medication is compounded and is a list of ingredients, MedicationRequest.code is still present and may contain only the list of ingredients as text in MedicationRequest.code.text.
• Where additional medicinal product information is needed, MedicationRequest.medicationReference is preferred to MedicationRequest.code and use of extensions, see guidance on AU Base Medication.
• When exchanging concepts of sex or gender, refer to the guidance in the Gender Harmony Implementation Guide.
• See each Identifier profile page for guidance related to that identifier type.

Potentially useful extensions:

• MedicationRequest: Medication Brand Name
• MedicationRequest: Medication Generic Name

• Differential Table
• Key Elements Table
• Snapshot Table
• Statistics/References
• All
