Health informatics - Requirements for electronic prescriptions (ISO 17523:2016)

ISO 17523:2016 specifies the requirements that apply to electronic prescriptions. It describes generic principles that are considered important for all electronic prescriptions.
ISO 17523:2016 is constrained to the content of the electronic prescription itself, the digital document which is issued by a prescribing healthcare professional and received by a dispensing healthcare professional. The prescribed medicinal product is to be dispensed through an authorized healthcare professional with the aim of being administered to a human patient. Other messages, roles and scenarios (e.g. validation of a prescription, administration, medication charts, EHR of the patient, reimbursement of care and dispensed products) are out of scope of this International Standard, because they are more or less country or region specific, due to differences in culture and in legislation of healthcare. However, requirements and content of electronic prescriptions within the context of jurisdictions have a relationship with these scenarios. The way in which electronic prescriptions are made available or exchanged also fall outside the scope of this International Standard.
ISO 17523:2016 is applicable to electronic prescriptions of medicinal products. Although other kinds of products (e.g. medical devices, wound care products) can be ordered by means of an electronic prescription, the requirements in this International Standard are aimed at medicinal products that have a market authorization and at pharmaceutical preparations which are compounded in a pharmacy. An electronic prescription is an information object that authorizes a healthcare professional to legally dispense a medicinal product.
ISO 17523:2016 specifies a list of data elements that can be considered as essential for electronic prescriptions, depending on jurisdiction or clinical setting (primary healthcare, hospital, etc.).

Medizinische Informatik - Anforderungen an elektronische Verschreibungen (ISO 17523:2016)

Diese Internationale Norm legt die Anforderungen an elektronische Verschreibungen fest. Sie beschreibt generische Grundsätze, die als für alle elektronischen Verschreibungen wichtig betrachtet werden.
Der Anwendungsbereich dieser Internationalen Norm ist auf den Inhalt der elektronischen Verschreibung selbst begrenzt, das digitale Dokument, das durch eine die Verschreibung vornehmende im Gesundheitswesen tätige, qualifizierte Person ausgestellt und durch eine die Abgabe vornehmende im Gesundheitswesen tätige, qualifizierte Person entgegengenommen wird. Das verschriebene Arzneimittel ist über eine befugte im Gesundheitswesen tätige, qualifizierte Person abzugeben, um einem menschlichen Patienten verabreicht zu werden. Weitere Meldungen, Rollen und Szenarios (z. B. Validierung einer Verschreibung, Verabreichung, Medikamenten¬tabellen, ELGA des Patienten, Erstattung der Pflegekosten und abgegebenen Produkte) liegen außerhalb des Anwendungsbereichs dieser Internationalen Norm, da sie aufgrund der kulturellen und gesetzgeberischen Unterschiede in Bezug auf das Gesundheitswesen mehr oder weniger länder- oder regionsspezifisch sind. Die Anforderungen an die und der Inhalt der elektronische(n) Verschreibungen im Kontext der Rechtsprechungen stehen jedoch mit diesen Szenarios im Zusammenhang. Die Art und Weise, auf die elektronische Verschreibungen zur Verfügung gestellt oder ausgetauscht werden, liegt außerhalb des Anwendungs¬bereichs dieser Internationalen Norm.
Die vorliegende Internationale Norm gilt für elektronische Verschreibungen von Arzneimitteln. Obwohl auch andere Arten von Produkten (z. B. Medizinprodukte, Wundpflegeprodukte) mithilfe von elektronischen Verschreibungen bestellt werden können, beziehen sich die Anforderungen in dieser Internationalen Norm auf Arzneimittel mit Marktzulassung und pharmazeutische Präparate, die in einer Apotheke zubereitet werden. Bei einer elektronischen Verschreibung handelt es sich um ein Informationsobjekt, das eine im Gesundheitswesen tätige, qualifizierte Person zur legalen Abgabe eines Arzneimittels befugt.
Diese Internationale Norm legt eine Auflistung von Datenelementen fest, die teilweise als wesentlich für alle elektronischen Verschreibungen oder für elektronische Verschreibungen in bestimmten Rechtsprechungen oder bestimmten klinischen Umgebungen (z. B. medizinische Grundversorgung, Krankenhaus usw.) angesehen werden können.

Informatique de santé - Exigences applicables aux prescriptions électroniques (ISO 17523:2016)

ISO 17523 :2016 spécifie les exigences qui s'appliquent aux prescriptions électroniques. Elle décrit les principes génériques qui sont considérés comme importants pour l'ensemble des prescriptions électroniques.
Le domaine d'application de l'ISO 17523 :2016  se limite au contenu de la prescription électronique elle-même, c'est-à-dire du document numérique qui est émis par un professionnel de santé prescripteur et reçu par un professionnel de santé dispensateur. Le produit médicamenteux prescrit doit être délivré par l'intermédiaire d'un professionnel de santé autorisé, dans le but d'être administré à un patient humain. Les autres messages, rôles et scénarios (par exemple, la validation d'une prescription, l'administration, les tableaux d'administration de médicaments, le DIS du patient ou le remboursement des soins et des produits délivrés) ne relèvent pas du domaine d'application de la présente Norme internationale, car ils sont plus ou moins spécifiques à un pays ou à une région, en raison des différences culturelles et législatives en matière de soins de santé. Toutefois, les exigences et le contenu des prescriptions électroniques, tout en tenant compte des différents pays, ont une relation avec ces scénarios. Les modes de transmission et d'échange des prescriptions électroniques ne relèvent pas non plus du domaine d'application de la présente Norme internationale.
ISO 17523 :2016 s'applique aux prescriptions électroniques de produits médicamenteux. Bien qu'il soit possible de commander d'autres types de produits (par exemple, des dispositifs médicaux ou des produits de soins des plaies) au moyen d'une prescription électronique, les exigences de la présente Norme internationale concernent les produits médicamenteux ayant une autorisation de mise sur le marché et les préparations pharmaceutiques réalisées dans une pharmacie. Une prescription électronique est un objet d'information qui autorise un professionnel de santé à délivrer légalement un produit médicamenteux.
ISO 17523 :2016  spécifie une liste d'éléments de données qui peuvent être considérés comme essentiels pour les prescriptions électroniques, dépendant du pays ou du milieu clinique (soins de santé primaires, hôpital, etc.).

Zdravstvena informatika - Zahteve za elektronske recepte (ISO 17523:2016)

Cilj je mednarodni standard in evropski standard o elektronskih receptih. Ta standard opisuje zahteve, ki veljajo za obstoječe in prihodnje elektronske recepte, ki so del zdravstvenega informacijskega sistema po vsem svetu. Ta standard določa splošna načela za elektronske recepte in vsebino, ki omogoča lažjo izmenjavo in obdelavo elektronskih receptov. Standard se uporablja v bolnicah in zunaj njih. Področje uporabe je omejeno na vsebino samega recepta, na vloge predpisovalca in farmacevta ter scenarij predpisovanja medicinskih proizvodov bolnikom. Druga sporočila, vloge in scenariji niso zajeti v mednarodnem standardu, ker so bolj ali manj specifični za državo ali regijo zaradi kulturnih razlik in različne zakonodaje o zdravstvu in povračilu stroškov oskrbe. Način izmenjave ali razpoložljivosti elektronskih receptov in sporočil o predpisovanju ne spada na področje uporabe tega standarda.

ISO 17523:2016(E)
Introduction
Modern healthcare is rapidly advancing and relying on electronic communications. Many countries
already have or are in the process of developing electronic systems to contain and distribute personal
data regarding healthcare, among which is exchange of electronic prescriptions. Therefore, it becomes
increasingly important to set up International Standards that in the end will facilitate safe and reliable
dispensing and administration of the prescribed product to the patient. Also, since international
travelling has become integrated into daily life, it is important that electronic communications
regarding prescriptions can somehow be synchronized between prescribers and dispensers in different
jurisdictions.
The most important question regarding electronic prescriptions is which information is required to
accompany the electronic prescription in order to have exactly the intended medicine dispensed to the
patient, including all relevant information with regard to its correct and safe use. This International
Standard provides the basic set of information requirements to support electronic prescription.
While the organization of healthcare is national, the development and production of medicinal products
on the other hand is truly international. The market authorization is strictly legislated in jurisdictional
specific directives and laws. Part of this legislation regulates prescribing and dispensing of medicinal
products. Information systems in healthcare must be designed so that end-users comply with this
legislation (preferably without needing to pay too much attention). An International Standard on
electronic prescriptions may support the implementation of (international) legislation on medicinal
products in health informatics. For instance, the definition of the term “electronic prescription” has to
comply with that of national legislations and multinational directives.
The prescription written on paper has a deeply rooted cultural history for both healthcare professionals
and patients. Using
