Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/qicore/StructureDefinition/qicore-medicationdispense Version: 5.0.0
Active as of 2018-08-22 Computable Name: QICoreMedicationDispense

Profile of MedicationDispense for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors.

Usage

To create an expression specifically requesting information that a MedicationDispense intentionally did not occur for a medical, patient or system reason, use the profile QICore-medicationnotdispensed.

The following example illustrates the use of the MedicationDispense profile

define "Dementia Medication Dispensed":
  ["MedicationDispense": "Dementia Medications"] MedicationDispense
    where MedicationDispense.status in { 'active', 'completed', 'on-hold' }

See the patterns page for implementation and usage patterns.
