About the PrescribeIT Subsets
Canada Health Infoway is working with Health Canada, the provinces and territories, and industry stakeholders to create, operate and maintain a financially self-sustaining, multi-jurisdiction e-prescribing service, known as PrescribeIT™. This will be a single service that can be scaled for use across the country enabling prescribers to electronically transmit a prescription to a patient’s pharmacy of choice.
The pan-Canadian PrescribeIT subsets provide a standardized way for systems to capture, store, retrieve and transmit related health information.

Known Issues with the July 2017 release of PrescribeIT subsets:
- In cases where the reference terminology was managed by Infoway, the risk of pre-adopting codes that have not been previously published was low and the subsets were published as an Initial release.
- IndicationForUse subset should be considered a starter set because there was insufficient consensus on the content.
- PrescriptionMedicinalProduct is missing content based on the scope.
