    Description

      Given that the encounter profile is "US Public Health Encounter", it may be problematic that .subject is constrained to the CCRR Cancer patient profile. If the Encounter is expected to be used more generally, constraining it to US Public Health Patient may make more sense. Although then, you make need a CCRR Encounter profile to further constrain it down to a cancer patient.
