Hi,
Satyendra Sahani (Sep 08 2016 at 20:22):
For medicationOrder resources, if i have to list multiple medicine. Do i have to create multiple files for medicationOrder. because i have to mention doses for every medicine. but in medicationOrder, doses are not as per medication.

how to go a head about this?

Each medication that can be administered separately would be a separate MedicationOrder. You can only use a single MedicationOrder if the medications are all mixed together and administered as 1 - eg. a compound or a complex IV. If you're wanting to group multiple MedicationOrders together as a single logical "prescription", STU3 will likely have a new data element that will allow you to link together a bunch of distinct MedicationOrders with a common "requisition" identifier.

Thanks Lloyd.

We were using DSTU2. So we will go with your first suggestion.
So how to group all prescribed medicines under one order.
Lloyd McKenzie (Sep 10 2016 at 15:40):
For DSTU2, you'll have to use an extension

I couln'd find any sample or way to do with extension
Satyendra Sahani (Sep 18 2016 at 13:06):
can you please guide us to understand this more.
Satyendra Sahani (Sep 18 2016 at 13:07):
Or share any sample, which is using extension.
