Are RxNorm codes stored in the CEMR database?
The documentation I have for the CEMR 9.8 data model specifies GPI codes and NDC codes but I can't find documentation for Rxnorm.

I know this is an old post but I was trying to find the same thing and I finally found it so I figured I would put this here in case anyone needed it in the future. There is a table in the database called DDID_RXNORM. The table has 2 fields, DDID and RXNORM code. The DDID corresponds to the DDID field in the MEDINFO table or alternatively to the DDID in the MEDICATE table.

Unfortunately even this table is sketchy. For example, the DDID value for Advair Diskus is 150990. Look that up in DDID_RXNORM and you'll find three RXNORM values. Which is correct? Who knows...
