US Core MedicationRequest Profile

Description
This section states the following:
"The following 3 resources are introduced here to provide background and define the relationships between the pharmacy resources. This guide does not use them for accessing a patient’s medications:
- MedicationDispense
- MedicationAdministration
- MedicationStatement "
Please add clarifying text that MedicationRequest is NOT meant as a replacement for MedicationDispense, MedicationAdministration, and MedicationStatement. Rather, the scope of US Core tracks USCDI, and things like MedicationAdministration are not required in the current version of USCDI. Once MedicationAdministration and other resources are added to USCDI, they will be added to future versions of US Core.
