This document provides guidance to implementers and how to use the various profiles related to medications within the context of the DAF Implementation Guide. The list of profiles and their intended usage is as provided in the table below
| DAF FHIR profile | Purpose | Base FHIR Resource |
|---|---|---|
| DAF MedicationPrescription profile | This profile is used to represent an order for both supply of the medication and the instructions for administration of the medicine to a patient. | MedicationPrescription |
| DAF MedicationDispense profile | This profile is used to represent the provision of a supply of a medication with the intention that it is subsequently consumed by a patient (usually in response to a prescription). | MedicationDispense |
| DAF MedicationStatement profile | This profile is used to record an assertion that a medication was given, or is being given, to a patient. | MedicationStatement |
| DAF MedicationAdministration profile | This profile is used to represent the event of administering a medication to a patient. | MedicationAdministration |
| DAF Medication profile | This profile is used to represent medication material (e.g. drugs) as part of the other DAF medication related profiles. | Medication |
Medication-related resources compliant with DAF profiles can be queried individually (e.g. by querying for a MedicationPrescription) or by querying for relevant types of List (active medications list, discharge medications list, etc.) and using _include to retrieve the items referenced by the list as well. See the DAFMedicationList profile for information on medication-specific Lists.
