Hello,

Where in the R4 MedicationRequest API call is when the medication was administered?  I've checked JSON coming from out of ourPROD domain and I don't when the drug was actually given.  I only see when the provider wanted to have it given.

MedicationRequest is just the order of the medication. MedicationAdministration includes the instances of when the medication was actually administered.

Aaron,

I don't see a MedicationAdministration for R4 https://fhir.cerner.com only MedicationRequest.  What is the R4 api call for MedicationAdministration?

Nevermind.  I found a post from Fenil saying MedicationAdministration is not done yet.  Lol we needed diet orders for our dashboard so we migrated to R4 but looks like we lost MedicationAdministration in the process.

If you do need MedicationAdministration before it is available in R4, we can help you configure your app to use the DSTU2 version (you would have to keep track of this using a different path).
