Pharmacy

Work Group

Maturity Level: 3

Standards Status: Trial Use

This type is still undergoing development and review by the appropriate Workgroups. At this time, is considered only as a draft design not suitable for production implementation

The Population structure defines TODO.

Note: the Population structure allows modifier extensions.

Structure

Name	Flags	Card.	Type	Description & Constraints
Population	Σ D		BackBoneElement	A definition of a set of people that apply to some clinically related context, for example people contraindicated for a certain medication Elements defined in Ancestors: id, extension, modifierExtension
