Resource Profile: PCT GFE MedicationRequest

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/davinci-pct/StructureDefinition/davinci-pct-medicationrequest Version: 2.0.0
Standards status: Draft Maturity Level: 0 Computable Name: PCTMedicationRequest
Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.40.4.42.49

The PCT MedicationRequest including details about a medication for which a GFE is being requested.

The following profile relates to the Good Faith Estimate (GFE) Coordination workflow and is marked as DRAFT. This content has not yet met the requisite level of testing to be balloted as trial-use. However, this part of the specification has been reviewed by the Da Vinci Patient Cost Transparency (PCT) open community of providers, payers, and health information technology (IT) vendors and was determined to be at a sufficient level of development to be included in this publication for the purposes of soliciting feedback from, and enabling testing by, the larger implementation community with the intention of bringing the content related to the GFE Coordination workflow to full standard for trial use (STU) status in a future version. Feedback is welcome and may be submitted through the FHIR change tracker indicating "US Da Vinci Patient Cost Transparency (PCT)(FHIR)" as the specification.
