11.4 Resource MedicationStatement - Content

Pharmacy Work GroupMaturity Level: 3 Trial UseCompartments: Patient, Practitioner, RelatedPerson

A record of a medication that is being consumed by a patient. A MedicationStatement may indicate that the patient may be taking the medication now, or has taken the medication in the past or will be taking the medication in the future. The source of this information can be the patient, significant other (such as a family member or spouse), or a clinician. A common scenario where this information is captured is during the history taking process during a patient visit or stay. The medication information may come from sources such as the patient's memory, from a prescription bottle, or from a list of medications the patient, clinician or other party maintains The primary difference between a medication statement and a medication administration is that the medication administration has complete administration information and is based on actual administration information from the person who administered the medication. A medication statement is often, if not always, less specific. There is no required date/time when the medication was administered, in fact we only know that a source has reported the patient is taking this medication, where details such as time, quantity, or rate or even medication product may be incomplete or missing or less precise. As stated earlier, the medication statement information may come from the patient's memory, from a prescription bottle or from a list of medications the patient, clinician or other party maintains. Medication administration is more formal and is not missing detailed information.

11.4.1 Scope and Usage

Common usage includes:

  • the recording of non-prescription and/or recreational drugs
  • the recording of an intake medication list upon admission to hospital
  • the summarization of a patient's "active medications" in a patient profile

A MedicationStatement may be used to record substance abuse or the use of other agents such as tobacco or alcohol. This would typically be done if these substances are intended to be inluded in clinical decision support checking (for example, interaction checking) and as part of an active medication list. If the intent is to populate social history and/or to include additional information (for example, desire to quit, amount per day, negative health effects), then it is better to record as an Observation that could then be used to populate Social History.

This resource does not produce a medication list, but it does produce individual medication statements that may be used in the List resource to construct various types of medication lists. Note that other medication lists can also be constructed from the other Pharmacy resources (e.g., MedicationRequest, MedicationAdministration).

A medication statement is not a part of the prescribe -> dispense -> administer sequence, but is a report by a patient, significant other or a clinician that one or more of the prescribe, dispense or administer actions has occurred, resulting is a belief that the patient is, has, or will be using a particular medication.

MedicationStatement is an event resource from a FHIR workflow perspective - see Workflow Event

11.4.2 Boundaries and Relationships

The MedicationStatement resource is used to record a medications or substances that the patient reports as being taken, not taking, have taken in the past or may take in the future. It can also be used to record medication use that is derived from other records such as a MedicationRequest. The statement is not used to request or order a medication, supply or device. When requesting medicaation, supplies or devices when there is a patient focus or instructions regarding their use, a MedicationRequest, SupplyRequest or DeviceRequestDeviceRequest should be used instead

The Medication domain includes a number of related resources

MedicationRequest An order for both supply of the medication and the instructions for administration of the medicine to a patient.
MedicationDispense Provision of a supply of a medication with the intention that it is subsequently consumed by a patient (usually in response to a prescription).
MedicationAdministration When a patient actually consumes a medicine, or it is otherwise administered to them
MedicationStatement This is a record of a medication being taken by a patient or that a medication has been given to a patient, where the record is the result of a report from the patient or another clinician, or derived from supporting information (for example, Claim, Observation or MedicationRequest). A medication statement is not a part of the prescribe->dispense->administer sequence, but is a report that such a sequence (or at least a part of it) did take place, resulting in a belief that the patient has received a particular medication.

This resource is distinct from MedicationRequest, MedicationDispense and MedicationAdministration. Each of those resources refer to specific events - an individual order, an individual provisioning of medication or an individual dosing. MedicationStatement is a broader assertion covering a wider timespan and is independent of specific events. The existence of resource instances of any of the preceding three types may be used to infer a medication statement. However, medication statements can also be captured on the basis of other information, including an assertion by the patient or a care-giver, the results of a lab test, etc.

  • mst-1: Reason not taken is only permitted if Taken is No (expression : reasonNotTaken.exists().not() or (taken = 'n'))

11.4.3.3 How to determine if the patient has taken the medication

The MedicationStatement resource includes both a status and a taken code. The taken code conveys whether the medication was taken by the patient from the perspective of the information source. The status code reflects the current state of the practitioner’s instructions to the patient whether the consumption of the medication should continue or not.

Note: Medication statements can be made about prescribed medications as well as non-prescribed (i.e. over the counter) medications.

If you desire to perform a query for all medication statements that “imply” that a medication has been taken, you will need to use both MedicationStatement.status and MedicationStatement.taken in your query. The following table is intended to provide guidance on the interpretation of these two attributes with respect to the MedicationStatement.

In the table below the “X” represents a valid status that can be present in combination with the Taken value.

Taken Information Source Active Completed Stopped On Hold Entered in Error Intended Interpretation or Meaning
N Exists (e.g. Patient or RelatedPerson) X X X Patient or related person states the medication is not currently being taken. Taken must = N.
When status = Active, it means that although a statement was made that the patient isn’t taking the medication, the practitioner still expects and instructs the patient to take the medication.
When status = On Hold, it means that although a statement was made that the patient isn’t taking the medication, the practitioner has suspended the medication, but intends for the patient to take the medication in the future.
When status = Intended, it means that although a statement was made that the patient isn’t taking the medication, the practitioner intends for the patient to take the medication in the future.
Y Exists (e.g. Patient or RelatedPerson) X X X Patient or related person states the medication is or will be taken. Taken must = Y. The status values can be any of the following: active, on hold, or intended.
UNK No information source exists X X X No assertion by patient or related person of whether the medication is being consumed.
The MedicationStatement still exists because it can be derived from a MedicationRequest, but it is unknown whether the Patient is taking the medication as prescribed in the MedicationRequest.
NA No information source exists X X X X X X Patient reporting does not apply.
For example, this can occur when MedicationStatements are derived from MedicationRequests that are administered by a practitioner. In this example, there is no need to ask for input from the patient or related person since the practitioner was responsible for the administration.
Another example might be a MedicationStatement derived from an end-stated (stopped, completed, entered in error) MedicationRequest. In this example, there is no need to ask for input from the patient or related person since the MedicationRequest is no longer applicable.
