Prescription - Update

Introduction
Sv. Uppdatera förskrivning.
This page describes how to update a prescription for a patient by an example.
Updating a prescription is done by the following operation.
PUT [base]/MedicationRequest
A set of HTTP headers must be provided in order to update a prescription and the prescription itself is provided as a MedicationRequest in the HTTP body.
- HTTP headers: see HTTP Header and Authorization for more information about the various headers used by the National Medication List.
- HTTP body: see MedicationRequest for more information about the MedicationRequest resource.
A PUT will update the resource in its entirety, it is therefore important to get the latest version of the resource before performing a change. The resource is identified by the logical id (the id element). A PUT on a non existing logical id will fail.
Before a MedicationRequest is updated, the user needs access to other information in the National Medication List. For more information on different scenarios and what information is required for each scenario, see Handbok för vård- och apotekstjänster: Verksamhetsområden.
Examples
HTTP Headers
See HTTP Header and Authorization for generic information about all HTTP headers used by the National Medication List including information about authorization, purpose and access type. The authorization token is translated to an authority role. The authority role together with the purpose and type of access is used by the National Medication List to determine what actions a user may perform and what information the user may access.
| Header | Comment |
|---|---|
| authorization | The users's security token |
| prefer | Type of returned content |
| x-access | The cause for the call |
| x-context-id | An ID to group a sequence of requests |
| x-org-info | Information about the users's organisation |
| x-patientref | The logical ID of the patient |
| x-provenance | A provenance resource with information about the user interacting with NLL |
| x-purpose | The purpose of the call |
| x-request-id | A random and unique ID |
| x-user-agent | Information about the calling system |
