One of three CDA Implementation Guides in the series of six Technical Specifications that collectively define a method for the electronic transfer of prescriptions in Australia.

This Technical Specification provides requirements for implementing the logical model of a dispense record detailed in ATS 4888.1, Part 1: Platform independent (logical) information model to support electronic transfer of prescriptions, as an HL7 Clinical Document Architecture Release 2 (CDA) XML document. The primary aim of this Technical Specification is to take implementers step by step through mapping each data component of ATS 4888.1 to a corresponding CDA attribute or element.This Technical Specification contains descriptions of both constraints on the CDA and, where necessary, custom extensions to the CDA, for the purposes of fulfilling the requirements for Australian implementations of an electronic prescription (e-prescription). The resulting CDA document would be used for the electronic exchange of dispense records between healthcare providers.In addition, this Technical Specification presents conformance requirements against which implementers can attest the conformance of their systems.
