description: This profile sets minimum expectations for the MedicationDispense resource to record, search, and fetch the \"state of a medication with regards to dispensing or other activity. (e.g., dispensed, partially dispensed, not dispensed)\" associated with a patient to promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation. It identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present in the resource when using this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific use cases. package_name: hl7.fhir.us.core derivation: constraint name: USCoreMedicationDispenseProfile type: MedicationDispense elements: whenHandedOver: {mustSupport: true, index: 11} medicationCodeableConcept: {type: CodeableConcept, mustSupport: true, choiceOf: medication, index: 3} type: binding: {strength: extensible, valueSet: 'http://terminology.hl7.org/ValueSet/v3-ActPharmacySupplyType'} mustSupport: true index: 9 status: {mustSupport: true, index: 0} dosageInstruction: mustSupport: true index: 12 elements: text: {mustSupport: true, index: 13} timing: {mustSupport: true, index: 14} doseAndRate: mustSupport: true index: 15 elements: dose: mustSupport: true choices: [doseQuantity, doseRange] index: 17 doseQuantity: {type: Quantity, mustSupport: true, choiceOf: dose, index: 18} doseRange: {type: Range, mustSupport: true, choiceOf: dose, index: 19} medicationReference: type: Reference mustSupport: true choiceOf: medication refers: ['http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-medication'] index: 4 quantity: type: Quantity binding: {strength: preferred, valueSet: 'http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/ucum-common'} mustSupport: true index: 10 authorizingPrescription: type: Reference mustSupport: true refers: ['http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-medicationrequest'] index: 8 subject: type: Reference mustSupport: true refers: ['http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-patient'] index: 5 performer: mustSupport: true index: 6 elements: actor: type: Reference mustSupport: true refers: ['http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Device', 'http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-organization', 'http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-patient', 'http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-practitioner', 'http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-practitionerrole', 'http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-relatedperson'] index: 7 medication: mustSupport: true choices: [medicationCodeableConcept, medicationReference] index: 2 package_version: 6.0.0-ballot class: profile kind: resource url: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-medicationdispense base: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/MedicationDispense version: 6.0.0-ballot required: [whenHandedOver, subject]
