How do I represent medication alternatives in FHIR?


I would like to know if there is a Resource I could use to represent medication alternatives, such as:

If you are taking Drug A , you should use Drug B or Drug C instead


Solution

  • This is not something that FHIR has implemented yet - it's clinical/medical knowledge. The nearest that FHIR currently has is the Clinical Quality Framework: http://hl7-fhir.github.io/cqif/cqif.html

    Warning: It's very much a work in progress, and the link above is to the current build, not a stable release
