Level 0	Medications	Pharmacologic agents used in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease.	Reported Medication (unique)	“Indicates if this record was captured as a secondary 'reported' record rather than as an original primary source-of-truth record.” (from FHIR R4 MedicationRequest.reported[x]). This would clearly identify a medication that only exists in the data system not as part of any direct data for an original prescription (within the same EHR or across an EHR network, etc) but, instead, via descriptive communication or narrative (verbal, written, etc) by a relevant person (the patient, family, a caregiver, another physician, etc.) This may either be represented as a simple Boolean choice or, additionally, include information of the person and/or nature of the reporting. Additionally, some standards and system implementations provide more than one location for this type of information – and different options are used by different implementations resulting in highly non-standardized usage of this critical information. Proposal is that this information is captured ONLY in one way, universally across systems.	In FHIR R4, MedicationRequest.reported[x] (https://www.hl7.org/fhir/medicationrequest-definitions.html#MedicationRequest.reported_x_) supplied either a boolean or Reference(Patient \| Practitioner \| PractitionerRole \| RelatedPerson \| Organization) In FHIR R4 MedicationStatement - FHIR v4.0.1 (https://www.hl7.org/fhir/medicationstatement.html) which is still sometimes used to represent reported medications, a number of key terminologies are utilized	Scott Gordon	Food and Drug Administration	09/30/2021 - 17:37
Level 0	Medications	Pharmacologic agents used in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease.	Medication Prescription Do-Not-Perform	Do-not-perform is an additional Boolean element in HL7 FHIR R4 Medication Request representing the provider’s intent that the prescription NOT be carried forward. If it is assumed that Status will be updated based on this command (ie, status will be changed to “cancelled” then this may be redundant. Alternative is an additional Status of “cancelled-by-provider”	In FHIR R4, https://www.hl7.org/fhir/medicationrequest-definitions.html#MedicationRequest.status	Scott Gordon	Food and Drug Administration	09/30/2021 - 18:12

Level 0	Medications	Pharmacologic agents used in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease.	Medication Prescription Patient	The person who is the intended recipient of the medication.

Level 0	Cancer Care		Secondary Cancer Condition	Also known as secondary malignant neoplasm, secondary cancer condition is used to describe either a new primary cancer or cancer that has spread from the place in which it started to other parts of the body (Source: NCI).	Three terminologies are commonly referenced for the exchange of secondary/metastatic cancer conditions: • International Classification of Diseases, 10th version, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) guidelines for coding and reporting and includes specific guidelines on inclusion of secondary codes needed to properly code a neoplasm. • SNOMED CT, which includes dedicated codes for describing metastatic malignant neoplasms. • International Classification of Diseases for Oncology version 3 (ICD-O-3), which includes codes that assert a neoplasm is metastatic.

Level 0	Cancer Care		Staging System	A cancer staging system is used to describe the extent of cancer in the body. There are many staging systems. Some, such as the TNM staging system, are used for many types of somatic cancer. Others are specific to a particular type of cancer (Source: NCI). Examples of non-TNM staging systems include the Cotswolds Modifications of the Ann Arbor Staging Classification, Revised International Staging System (R-ISS), and Rai and Binet staging systems for chronic lymphocytic leukemia.	SNOMED CT specifies codes for describing different cancer staging systems. mCODE further specifies a value set of SNOMED CT codes for cancer staging systems (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/mcode/ValueSet-mcode-cancer-staging-system-vs.ht…).
