Relationship between FHIR and openEHR

Thx a lot Ian!! @ian.mcnicoll

Copied here ā€¦

This is great!! Sorry Iā€™m picking it up late.

To answer your questions about the ā€˜gapsā€™

doNotPerform:

We would represent that in an accompanying
Medication Management
as a Discontinued or Cancelled step

courseOfTherapyType:

Values are ā€˜continuousā€™ , ā€˜acuteā€™ and ā€˜seasonalā€™

This is interesting - We have an element in Therapeutic directions which handles ā€˜continuousā€™ and therefore ā€˜acuteā€™ being the default. Iā€™m not sure about whether ā€˜seasonalā€™ makes sense as a category. ā€˜Intermittentā€™ might be more generic.

Therapeutic directions

Iā€™m glad to see this in FHIR now as it was a gap before

doseAndRate.type.

Values are
ā€˜Calculatedā€™ vs ā€˜orderedā€™

See Dosage

We do not carry this explicitly - that might be worth a CR to have it added, possibly as part of a general review of FHR R5 medication resources.
