FHIR Immunization and Medication Administration Task Force

• Status - PHER and Pharmacy resources met to discuss - will continue discussion in San Antonio
  • Mapping of Immunization attributes and definitions to Medication Administration has been completed and reviewed with PHER - some gaps
  • Divided in phases
    • 1st phase by December 24th - trying to harmonize "like" attributes - will forward to Joginder - 8 attributes have been mapped - need to harmonize names and definitions
      • Lot Number - should add to Medication Resource
      • Expiration Date - should add to Medication Resource
      • Explanation Reason - reason why vaccine administered - could this be mapped to indication - need more information
      • Explanation Refusal Reason - reason why vaccine not administered - we have a similar attribute in medication administration
      • Immunization Protocol - may be unique to Immunization
      • Immunization.date - in Medication Admin - called "whenGiven" - can we simplify to "date" - FHIR names are supposed to be more "human friendly" - so maybe "date when given"
      • Immunization.subject - we both point to patient resource, but need to harmonize name/definitions - recommend "patient"
      • Immunization.performer - both reference Practitioner resource - need to harmonize name/definitions
      • Immunization.site - same as MedicationAdministration.dosage.site - harmonize name/definitions
      • Immunization.route - same as MedicationAdministration.dosage.route - harmonize name/definitions
      • Immunization.doseQuantity - same as MedicationAdministration.doseQuantity - harmonize name/definitions
    • 2nd phase - won't be complete before Christmas - need to look at "similar concepts" but where they are modelled differently to determine how to represent consistently
