      1) Update PractitionerRole.role to Care Team Member Function 

      (https://vsac.nlm.nih.gov/valueset/2.16.840.1.113762.1.4.1099.30/expansion) which is a combination of SNOMED and HL7 participation function codes and is also used in  CareTeam.participant.role

       

      2) Add a bullet to the Implementation Specific Guidance Section:

       

      • When selecting role codes, implementers SHOULD choose the code that reflects the specific duties performed within that role rather than the specialty unless the individual's professional specialization characterizes the role.

    Description

      PractitionerRole.code and .specialty are bound to the same values. This seems redundant.
      Yet they use different value sets.
      If versioning is desired, one inappropriately uses an un-versioned FHIR copy.
      If not, the other one inappropriately uses the versioned VSAC service.
