    Description

      Currently the patient is a Must Support on CareTeam.participant.member.  As we are not hearing/seeing a specific need where patient as a member is necessary beyond the patient as a subject is creating redundancy and ambiguity of the difference in meaning between the two patient references.  When the person is a patient while at the same time a care team member to another patient, using CareTeam.participant.member(Patient) seems inappropriate as it is not in the role of a patient, but rather a related person.
