      Propose to change the description of the patient search parameters in Encounter and ClinicalImpression to remove "or Group".

      The expression is already correct, and already filters to just Patient, and there is another search parameter for subject on these 2 resources that covers both, and they will remain unchanged.

    Description

      We have found that the common search parameter "clinical-patient" (http://hl7.org/fhir/searchparameter-registry.html#clinical-patient) has two targets: both Patient and Group. This is surprising, since the methodology around "patient" parameters (in contrast to "subject") dictates that it has only the sole target "Patient".

      I proopse the Target for this search parameter needs to be limited to Patient.
