This case-sensitive code system http://hl7.org/fhir/CodeSystem/medicationrequest-status defines the following codes in a Is-A hierarchy:

Lvl Code Display Definition Copy
1 active Active The request is 'actionable', but not all actions that are implied by it have occurred yet. btn   btn
1 on-hold On Hold Actions implied by the request are to be temporarily halted. The request might or might not be resumed. May also be called 'suspended'. btn   btn
1 ended Ended The request is no longer active and the subject should no longer be taking the medication. btn   btn
2   stopped Stopped Actions implied by the request are to be permanently halted, before all of the administrations occurred. This should not be used if the original order was entered in error btn   btn
2   completed Completed All actions that are implied by the request have occurred. btn   btn
2   cancelled Cancelled The request has been withdrawn before any administrations have occurred btn   btn
1 entered-in-error Entered in Error The request was recorded against the wrong patient or for some reason should not have been recorded (e.g. wrong medication, wrong dose, etc.). Some of the actions that are implied by the medication request may have occurred. For example, the medication may have been dispensed and the patient may have taken some of the medication. btn   btn
1 draft Draft The request is not yet 'actionable', e.g. it is a work in progress, requires sign-off, verification or needs to be run through decision support process. btn   btn
1 unknown Unknown The authoring/source system does not know which of the status values currently applies for this request. Note: This concept is not to be used for 'other' - one of the listed statuses is presumed to apply, but the authoring/source system does not know which. btn   btn

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. See Code System for further information.
Source The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding ). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
