Hi there,
We have recently accessed data about patients and medications from CERNER sandbox. Based on our analysis on the data, we would like to clarify the following:
*
Medication has the attribute 'code' which is based on SNOWMED convention. Similar code is used for disease too. We are curious to know if ICD codes are also available for the above? If not, is there a way to map SNOWMED to ICD codes?
* The
medication statement seems to contain almost identical records with minor changes to timestamp. We would like to know why it is replicated in this way?
* Can we be assured that the
ingredients of a medication is a complete list provided by the manufacturer in all circumstances? If not, what are the exceptions?
Thank you for your support with clarifying the above questions.
Sri.
