EHDSDosage to FHIR DosageEuMpd Mapping

EHDSDosage to DosageEuMpd
Ongoing alignment: The models are expected to continue evolving, with updates incorporated into this Implementation Guide to maintain alignment with the EHDS Implementing Acts.

EHDSDosage to DosageEuMpd

This page explains how conceptual elements from the EHDS dosage logical model are expressed in the corresponding FHIR DosageEuMpd profile and the rendered dosage instruction elements used by this Implementation Guide.
