Health informatics - Patient healthcard data - Part 7: Medication data (ISO 21549-7:2007)

This part of ISO 21549 is applicable to situations in which such data are recorded on or transported by patient healthcards compliant with the physical dimensions of ID-1 cards defined by ISO 7810. This part of ISO 21549 specifies the basic structure of the data contained within the medication data object, but does not specify or mandate particular data-sets for storage on devices. The purpose of this part of ISO 21549 is for cards to provide information to other health professionals and to the patient or to their non-professional care giver. It may also be used to carry a new prescription from the prescriber to the dispenser/pharmacy in the design of its sets. Medication data includes the following four components: medication notes: the list of all medication for a patient; medication prescriptions: to carry a new prescription from the prescriber to the dispenser/pharmacy; medication dispensed: the records of medications bought by the patient; medication references: pointers to other systems that contain information that makes up a medication prescription and the authority to dispense.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 21549-7 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 215, Health informatics.
ISO 21549 consists of the following parts, under the general title Health informatics — Patient healthcard data:
⎯ Part 1: General structure
⎯ Part 2: Common objects
⎯ Part 3: Limited clinical data
⎯ Part 4: Extended clinical data

SIST EN ISO 21549-7:2008
ISO 21549-7:2007(E)
Introduction
With a more mobile population, greater healthcare delivery in the community and at patients' homes, together
with a growing demand for improved quality of ambulatory care, portable information systems and stores have
increasingly been developed and used. Such devices are used for tasks ranging from identification, through
portable medical record files, and on to patient-transportable monitoring systems.
The functions of such devices are to carry and to transmit person-identifiable information between themselves
and other systems; therefore, during their operational lifetime they may share information with many
technologically different systems which differ greatly in their functions and capabilities.
Healthcare administration increasingly relies upon similar automated identification systems. For instance,
prescriptions may be automated and data exchange carried out at a number of sites using patient
transportable computer readable devices. Healthcare insurers and providers are increasingly involved in
cross-region care, where reimbursement may require automated data exchange between dissimilar
healthcare systems.
The advent of remotely accessible data bases and support systems has led to the development and use of
“Healthcare Person” identification devices that are also able to perform security functions and transmit digital
signatures to remote systems via networks.
With the growing use of data cards for practical everyday healthcare delivery, the need has arisen for a
standardized data format for interchange.
The person-related data carried by a data card can be categorized in three broad types: identification (of the
device itself and the individual to whom the data it carries relates), administrative and clinical. It is important to
realize that a given healthcare data card "de facto" has to contain device data and identification data and may
in addition contain administrative, clinical, prescription and linkage data.
Device data is defined to include:
⎯ identification of the device itself;
⎯ identification of the functions and functioning capabilities of the device.
Identification data may include:
⎯ unique identification of the device holder or of all other persons to whom the data carried by the
device are related.
Administrative data may include:
⎯ complementary person(s) related data;
⎯ identification of the funding of healthcare, whether public or private, and their relationships i.e.
insurer(s), contract(s) and policy(ies) or types of benefit;
⎯ other data (distinguishable from clinical data) that are necessary for the purpose of healthcare
delivery.

SIST EN ISO 21549-7:2008
ISO 21549-7:2007(E)
Clinical data may include:
⎯ items that provide information about health and health events;
⎯ their appraisal and labelling by a healthcare provider (HCP);
⎯ related actions planned, requested or performed;
Prescription data may include:
⎯ a record of medications received by the patient;
⎯ copies of prescriptions including the authority to dispense records of dispensed medications;
⎯ records of medications dispensed by the pharmacist to the patient;
⎯ pointers to other systems that contain information that makes up an medication prescription and the
authority to dispense.
Because a data card essentially provides specific answers to definite queries whilst having at the same time a
need to optimize the use of memory by avoiding redundancies “high level” Object Modelling Technique (OMT)
has been applied with respect to the definition of healthcare data card data structures.
Patient data cards may offer facilities to
a) communicate prescription information from one healthcare person to another healthcare person such as
to a healthcare agent or healthcare organization;
b) provide indexes and/or authority to access prescription information held other than on the patient data
card.
This part of ISO 21549 describes and defines the medication data objects used within or referenced by patient
held health data cards using UML, plain text and Abstract Syntax Notation (ASN.1).
This part of ISO 21549 does not describe and define the common objects defined within part 2 of ISO 21549
even though they are referenced and utilized within this document.

SIST EN ISO 21549-7:2008
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 21549-7:2007(E)

Health informatics — Patient healthcard data —
Part 7:
Medication data
1 Scope
This part of ISO 21549 is applicable to situations in which such data are recorded on or transported by patient
healthcards compliant with the physical dimensions of ID-1 cards defined by ISO 7810.
This part of ISO 21549 specifies the basic structure of the data contained within the medication data object,
but does not specify or mandate particular data-sets for storage on devices.
The purpose of this part of ISO 21549 is for cards to provide information to other health professionals and to
the patient or to their non-professional care giver.
It may also be used to carry a new prescription from the prescriber to the dispenser/pharmacy in the design of
its sets.
Medication data includes the following four components:
⎯ medication notes: the list of all medication for a patient;
⎯ medication prescriptions: to carry a new prescription from the prescriber to the dispenser/pharmacy;
⎯ medication dispensed: the records of medications bought by the patient;
⎯ medication references: pointers to other systems that contain information that makes up a medication
prescription and the authority to dispense.
In order to facilitate interoperability, whenever an application is built for use in the healthcare domain in
compliance with this part of ISO 21549, data items required for that application shall be drawn from the list of
objects (some of which are extensible) as provided in Clauses 6 to 8. These shall then be used in conjunction
with other data defined in other parts of this part of ISO 21549. The detailed functions and mechanisms of the
following services are not within the scope of this part of ISO 21549 (although its structures can accommodate
suitable data objects elsewhere specified):
⎯ the encoding of free text data;
⎯ security functions and related services that are likely to be specified by users for data cards depending on
their specific application, e.g.: confidentiality protection, data integrity protection and authentication of
persons and devices related to these functions;
⎯ access control services that may depend on active use of some data card classes such as
microprocessor cards;
⎯ the initialization and issuing process (which begins the operating lifetime of an individual data card, and
by which the data card is prepared for the data to be subsequently communicated to it according to this
part of ISO 21549).

SIST EN ISO 21549-7:2008
ISO 21549-7:2007(E)
The following topics are therefore beyond the scope of this part of ISO 21549:
⎯ physical or logical solutions for the practical functioning of particular types of data card;
⎯ how the message is processed further “downstream” of the interface between two systems;
⎯ the form which data take for use outside the data card, or the way in which such data are visibly
represented on the data card or elsewhere.
It should be noted that not only the definition of “medicinal products” differs from country to country, but also
the same name may relate to entirely different products in some countries. Therefore, special attention should
be made for the safety of patient, when the card is used across borders
As a matter of course, exchange of prescription across borders must follow all laws, instructions, rules, terms
and treaties between the said two countries.
