This resource model is designed to ensure traceability and structure throughout the ePI lifecycle, while maintaining alignment with regulatory requirements and the HL7 FHIR standard. It leverages base resources and patterns from the Vulcan (Vulcan ePI IG) and EMA (EMA ePI IG) implementation guides, but further details and adapts them for the specific requirements of the German context and the digital pilot use case.
