Abstract

Medication usage and administration are key areas for standardisation and interoperability in specialty-agnostic, secondary care research systems. Based on the requirements of four medical research specialty areas in Central England, we developed a medication record model, for the purpose of keeping track of medications the patients are taking, both from a patient-care and future research participation perspectives. In this paper, we present the model that is flexible enough to capture the core requirements of all research specialty areas, but also
extensible to include more specific, non-generic requirements. This work supports the electronic health data standardisation and interoperability efforts within the
secondary care domain.
