MedicationRequest Resource

Introduction

This page documents the implementation of the FHIR MedicationRequest resource (DSTU3) for the OpenMRS FHIR Module.
MedicationRequest Resource covers all orders for medications for a patient.
For more information on the FHIR MedicationRequest resource, please refer https://www.hl7.org/fhir/medicationrequest.html

Populating the FHIR MedicationRequest Resource

Shown below is how attributes of the FHIR MedicationRequest Resource map to the attributes of the OpenMRS Drug Order object. The left side of the relationship indicates the OpenMRS attribute; the right indicates the FHIR MedicationRequest resource mapping.
