Medication Request

Prescriptions are described as FHIR MedicationRequest resource. Lets say you would like to describe a doctor's prescription for Antibiotics.

  ]
}

• priority is optional - but if its "stat" you should mention so.
• subject - at the minimum, you must provide a display name just to satisfy the FHIR schema validation. If you are describing the patient resource, ensure that the reference is resolvable within another entry in the bundle.
• medicationReference - is reference to a MedicationResource to be found in the same bundle
• Keep in mind all the resources appear as entry in the bundle
