Overview

The scope of this Technical Specification (TS) for Medicinal Product Dictionary (MPD) requirements in the healthcare domain is to define the required characteristics that any MPD system should conform to in order to support healthcare use cases. These characteristics include the medication concepts, identifiers and relationships to form a kind of structure that supports the use cases. In order to support the use cases, an MPD-system needs to: - be comprehensive and exhaustive as far as possible - unless all medicinal products that are in scope are included, other systems cannot fully rely on the MPD-system to supply the necessary information, and some amount of duplicated registration of information will still be necessary; - contain the information in a consistent and appropriate structure according to the ISO IDMP Standards (as described in this Technical Specification) and with an appropriate level of detail. This document (DIN CEN ISO/TS 19256:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 215 "Health Informatics" (secretariat: ANSI, USA) with the collaboration of German experts and adopted by Technical Committee CEN/TC 251 "Medical Informatics" (secretariat NEN, the Netherlands). The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 063-07-03 AA "Terminologie" ("Terminology") at DIN Standards Committee Medicine (NAMed).
