Re: Top 10 of Detailed Clinical Models

When medication is considered be aware that there is already a huge
amount of requirements collection in HL7v2, HL7v3 space and in
European standards.
I think that with a limited amount of work the Clinical Models can be
produced and discussed.
In addition we need this all over the world and there is one European
project needing it : epSOS.

I would suggest that the 2 key requirements today are:
a) being able to merge medication lists for a given patient from
multiple sources
b) being able to handle entries in the list that were prescribed (and
that are recorded in some structured, standard way) and medications that
the patient says they are on already, including non-prescription and
herbal etc.
Being able to do this would generate a list that can actually be used
for decision support (interactions testing) for a new prescription.
I don't think either of these is dealt with directly by any of the
current standards.
