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, and applies the additional requirements from MedicationRequest (IPS).

See Comparison with other national and international IGs for a comparison between AU Patient Summary profiles and profiles in other implementation guides.

### Profile specific implementation guidance

- See the guidance on implementing the MedicationRequest resource in AU Core.

Conversion to derive from AU Core instead of AU Base is delayed until AU PS Encounter is converted due to build errors when publishing if this referenced profile does not derive from AU Core.

Usages:

- Use this Profile: AU PS Bundle
- Refer to this Profile: AU PS Composition
