[Gnumed-devel] Rethinking Medications… more t han just a snapshot list

[Jim Busser]

I remain close to production use of GNUmed but  the current medication list 
"snapshot" mode is not enough. It will frustrate me that medication information 
(once edited) disappears.

We *can* notice that when a medication is discontinued, it is really just made 
inactive. The information about when a patient started the medication, and the 
dosage, and the purpose (episode) and the aim and advice, remains available. 
The user needs only to click the "inactive" checkbox atop the list to see these 
inactive medications.

I would like to extend this "accessibility" so that, when a medication gets 
altered, the previous information can stay available. This needs to manage 
competing use cases but I think I have worked it out maybe reasonably well (??)
