Topic: Incomplete references for Medication in R5

I'm looking at the bleeding edge Medication IG and I noticed that the MedicationRequest resource is not listed among the resources that reference Medication.

This strikes me as both odd and concerning, considering that R4 Medication does list MedicationRequest as a referee.

Is this omission intentional, or could it be caused by the new use of CodeableReference in MedicationRequest R5 (versus the Reference[Medication] in MedicationRequest R4)?

I guess what I may be asking is - should a CodeableReference referent resource also list the referee?

Apologies if this belongs in a different stream, but I thought I would start here.

Yes, it's a known defect that CodeableReference references don't list the resources in the list of referred resources.

OK, thanks Jean!
