The data collection process collects medications that are found on the MD 'Current RX' screen. It does not make any decisions about whether a medication should actually have been removed from the 'Current RX' screen. The GP is responsible for making sure the list of medications is accurate.



Medications are mapped in a hierarchy - Class then Generic then Brand. If the generic names are listed then all brand names are mapped, and if a class is listed then all generic names and brand names are included.
