1 Introduction
This is the FHIR implementation guide for the information standard Medicatieproces 9, version 2.0. This standard is described in this functional specification and implemented here using HL7 FHIR, R4. This implementation guide assumes that the reader is familiar with this FHIR version.
Apart from this document, the guidelines as specified in general FHIR Implementation Guide apply. In particular, the reader should take note of the Use case overarching principles and the use of FHIR packages.
Use cases:
2 Actors involved

3 Use case: retrieve medication data
3.1 Introduction
The retrieve medication data transaction is used by the client to retrieve medication data from a server. The client can retrieve its desired information by searching on specific medication building blocks.
3.2 Actors
| Transaction group | Transaction | Actor | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieve Medication Data (PULL) | Consulting medication data | Client | Request medication data |
| Making medication data available | Server | Serve medication data |
The names of the transaction groups and transactions link to the functional definition in an ART-DECOR publication which details per scenario which data elements are used.
3.3 Invocations
3.3.1 Request message
When a patient or healthcare professional wants to obtain all medication data or specific parts matching various parameters, it issues a retrieve medication data request message. This message uses the HTTP GET method parameterized query against the server's medication FHIR endpoints. These endpoints can be one of the following:
- MedicationRequest
- MedicationDispense
- MedicationStatement
- MedicationAdministration
The search interaction is performed by an HTTP GET conform the FHIR search specification, as shown below. This URL is configurable by the client by configuring the query search parameters and search control parameters to modify the behaviour of the server such as response format and pagination. Multiple request messages may be needed to retrieve all desired information.
GET [base]/[type]{?[parameters]}
3.3.1.1 Patient identification
This implementation guide assumes that the client system is able to make a connection to the right server that contains the patient's information. It does not provide information on finding the right server nor does it provide information about security. Moreover, each transaction is performed in the context of a specific (authenticated) patient, for whose context might have been established using the authentication mechanisms described in external specifications such as the MedMij 'Afsprakenstelsel' or through the usage of search parameters for patient identification. Each server is required to perform filtering based on the patient associated with the context for the request or based on the patient identification search parameters, so only the records associated with the authenticated patient are returned.
When patient identification requires the use of search parameters, the following search parameters SHALL be supported:
- Patient:
identifier - MedicationRequest:
patient - MedicationDispense:
patient - MedicationStatement:
patient - MedicationAdministration:
patient
An example of a request that retrieves all MedicationRequest resources of a patient with a fake BSN of 11122233:
GET [base]/MedicationRequest?patient.identifier=http://fhir.nl/fhir/NamingSystem/bsn|111222333

MedMij uses the FHIR Packaging mechanism. This conveniently bundles all examples, profiles and other conformance resources you need into a single archive, which can be downloaded or installed using the appropriate FHIR tooling. This version of the information standard uses the following packages: Note: any other version with the same major.minor version is compatible. See Semantic Versioning for more information. |

4 Use case: retrieve medication overview
4.1 Introduction
The retrieve medication overview transaction is used by the client to retrieve a medication overview from the server.
4.2 Actors
| Transaction group | Transaction | Actor | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieve Medication overview (PULL) | Consulting medication overview | Client | Request Medication overview |
| Making medication overview available | Server | Serve Medication overview |
The names of the transaction groups and transactions link to the functional definition in an ART-DECOR publication which details per scenario which data elements are used.
4.3 Invocations
4.3.1 Request message
When the patient or healthcare professional wants to obtain a patient's medication overview, it issues a Consulting medication overview request message. This message uses an extended operation on the RESTful API to obtain a medication overview from a server. An operation is needed because the server will formulate the content of the response based on its internal business logic. The medication overview can not easily be described by standardized restful requests.
The client executes a medication-overview operation with HTTP POST against the server base endpoint as shown below.
POST [base]/$medication-overview
4.3.2 Response message
The server returns a HTTP Status code appropriate to the processing of the operation. The successful outcome of the $medication-overview operation is the body of the medication overview response message. Successful processing of this operation should result in a Bundle recourse of type 'searchset', containing one List and one Patient resource as entries along with all the resources that represent the current medication overview. These resources SHALL be referenced from the List resource. The clinical content of the medication overview is defined in the Medication Process specification.
The Bundle profile represents the structure of the retrieve medication overview response message. The List profile represents the medication overview. The List contains the medication overview metadata and references to all resources that constitute the medication overview. These resources are included in the Bundle as entries. The Bundle.total value contains the number of matching zib: MedicationUse, AdministrationAgreement and MedicationAgreement. Other included resources, such as Medication resources, are not included in the total. The returned Bundle has at least one List and one Patient resource. The returned data to the client SHALL be a valid instance of its applicable profile as shown in the List of Profiles.
Note that the medication resources blocks are grouped per 'pharmaceutical treatment' conform to the Medication Process specification. Grouping SHALL be done by use of a 'Pharmaceutical Treatment Identifier'. This identifier shall be the same across different related medication resources that constitute one medication treatment. The PharmaceuticalTreatmentIdentifier extension is to be used for this grouping purpose.
