12.18 Resource SupplyRequest - Content

Orders and Observations

Work Group

Maturity Level : 0

Compartments : Patient

A record of a request for a medication, substance or device used in the healthcare setting.

12.18.1 Scope and Usage

This resource is a request resource from a FHIR workflow perspective - see Workflow . It is the intent of the Orders and Observation Workgroup to align this resource with the workflow pattern for request resources .

The scope of the SupplyRequest resource is for recording the request of supplies used in the healthcare process. This includes supplies specifically used in the treatment of patients as well as supply movement within an institution (transport a set of supplies from materials management to a service unit (nurse station). This resource does not include the provisioning of transportation services.

The SupplyRequest resource allows requesting only a single item. If a workflow requires requesting multiple items simultaneously, this is done using multiple instances of this resource. These instances can be linked in different ways, depending on the needs of the workflow. For guidance, refer to the Request pattern

12.18.2 Boundaries and Relationships

Note that the SupplyRequest records the fact that a request was made. To actually act on that request, additional workflow beyond simply the existence of a SupplyRequest is required. This can be achieved by using an Task resource, with the SupplyRequest referenced from the Task.focus, or by using the SupplyRequest resource in the context of an messaging or service workflow where the request is explicit or implicit. The SupplyDelivery resource represents the fulfillment as a result of SupplyRequest being acted upon.

The SupplyRequest resource is used for inventory management . When requesting medication, substances and devices when there is a patient focus or instructions regarding their use, DeviceUseRequest or MedicationRequest should be used instead
