The purpose of this profile is to provide a core representation of a request for the supply of a medication and the instructions for administration of that medication to a patient for the electronic exchange of health information between individuals, healthcare providers, and the My Health Record system infrastructure in Australia.

This profile identifies the additional constraints, extensions, and value sets that build on and extend MedicationRequest that are supported.

Where a more specific MedicationRequest profile is applicable, e.g. prescription, an implementation SHALL ensure the resource conforms to that specific profile.

This profile is designed to set a core MedicationRequest standard for:

- Query medication orders or prescriptions for a patient (current and historical)
- Record or update medication orders or prescriptions for a patient

#### Profile specific guidance

- See the Medicine information section for guidance.
- MedicationRequest resources can represent a medication using either a code, or reference a Medication resource.
  - When referencing a Medication resource, it is preferred the resource is contained but it may be an external resource.

Usage:

- This Resource Profile is not used by any profiles in this Implementation Guide
