statusIt is expected that most implementations will require the use of status to support workflow.
The status can be used to determine the overall status of medication administration events.
It is recommended that the status is used to indicate the status at a high-level so that integrated systems can determine how to represent this information.
| Status | FHIR Definition | Implementation Guidance |
|---|---|---|
in-progress |
The administration has started but has not yet completed. | |
not-done |
The administration was terminated prior to any impact on the subject (though preparatory actions may have been taken) | |
on-hold |
Actions implied by the administration have been temporarily halted, but are expected to continue later. May also be called 'suspended'. | |
completed |
All actions that are implied by the administration have occurred. | This would be a suitable trigger to share the medication administration event with shared records. |
entered-in-error |
The administration was entered in error and therefore nullified. | |
stopped |
Actions implied by the administration have been permanently halted, before all of them occurred. |
A statusReason SHOULD be populated with a coded reason for stopping the medication administration.
|
unknown |
The authoring system does not know which of the status values currently applies for this request. Note: This concept is not to be used for 'other' - one of the statuses listed is presumed to apply, it's just not known which one. | The patient may have had some encounter with this medication, but the current status is unknown. Avoid the use of this status value where possible. |
