Looking for any information on projects using Health Canada OIDs !!

Hi Smita,
We (Newfoundland & Labrador) use these OIDs/Code Systems in our Pharmacy Network (HL7 v3 pan-Canadian messages: CeRx V01R04.3).
Thanks,
Sisira (NLCHI).

1) I suspect that they were created for PrescribeIT?
2) They are defined in the FHIR specification.

Hi Smita,

We use hl7.org/fhir/sid/ca-hc-din for HC-DIN which is published in STU 3 hl7.org/fhir/STU3/terminologies-systems.html

Thanks, Jean for the quick reply.Few quick queries:

1. Do you know who created these Naming Systems?
2. I guess these URIs are not resolvable for now. Are they registered in any registry?

Regards,
Smita

Many of those have URIs already defined:
hl7.org/fhir/NamingSystem/ca-hc-din (DIN)
hl7.org/fhir/sid/ca-hc-npn (NPN)

I doubt that the Ingredient codes have URIs since they haven't really been used in FHIR yet.

Hi All,
