Medication Overview Main Page
Medication Overview Project
The goal of this work item is to produce IHE Profiles for Medication Overview.
Medication overview relates to:
- Documentation of medication lists - i.e. the list of medications that the patient is taking, or has been taking, or is supposed to be taking.
- Medication treatment planning - where the medication for a patient starts as a treatment plan from which the necessary prescriptions and dispenses are derived.
While these are different goals, interoperability between practices and jurisdictions is essential to ensure continuity of care and patient-centered data, especially in transition of medication list content rules, or paradigm.
The goal of this work is to provide a standard set of transactions for exchanging medication information - overviews for different scenarios:
- Medication Lists or Summaries for transition of care
- Medication Details for EHRs or EPRs
- Medication Treatments for care planning and delivery
This topic is intrinsically articulated with the Medication Prescription and Delivery topis:
- In some situations, a Medication Overview is a result of collecting (manually or automatically) the available clinical documents - prescriptions, dispenses, etc.
- In a growing number of cases, the "treatment overview" is not a result of the clinical documents but is the starting point for initiating clinical actions.
