11.3 Resource MedicationDispense - Content

Pharmacy Work GroupMaturity Level: 2 Trial UseCompartments: Patient, Practitioner

Indicates that a medication product is to be or has been dispensed for a named person/patient. This includes a description of the medication product (supply) provided and the instructions for administering the medication. The medication dispense is the result of a pharmacy system responding to a medication order.

11.3.1 Scope and Usage

This resource covers the supply of medications to a patient. Examples include dispensing and pick-up from an out-patient or community pharmacy, dispensing patient-specific medications from in-patient pharmacy to ward, as well as issuing a single dose from ward stock to a patient for consumption. The medication dispense is the result of a pharmacy system responding to a medication order.

MedicationDispense is an event resource from a FHIR workflow perspective - see Workflow Event

11.3.2 Boundaries and Relationships

The Medication domain includes a number of related resources

MedicationRequest An order for both supply of the medication and the instructions for administration of the medicine to a patient.
MedicationDispense Provision of a supply of a medication with the intention that it is subsequently consumed by a patient (usually in response to a prescription).
MedicationAdministration When a patient actually consumes a medicine, or it is otherwise administered to them
MedicationStatement This is a record of a medication being taken by a patient or that a medication has been given to a patient, where the record is the result of a report from the patient or another clinician. A medication statement is not a part of the prescribe->dispense->administer sequence, but is a report that such a sequence (or at least a part of it) did take place, resulting in a belief that the patient has received a particular medication.

This resource does not deal with the supply or transfer of non-medication related items to a patient.

11.3.3 Background and Context

The supply and the associated administration instructions may not exactly follow the original order (prescription), either because some details were left for completion at this point in the process or because the dispenser exercised their clinical judgment to make some appropriate modification.

This resource is referenced by ChargeItem and MedicationStatement
