    Description

      From discussion at https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/284830-smart.2Fhealth-cards/topic/My.20COVID.20Test.20Result:

      Also, the "Performer" is listed as "Abbott" rather than "Walgreens" – does this sound correct to you? (I had the test done at Walgreens; they used an Abbott manufactured test/platform.)

      User would likely expect "Walgreens" to appear in Performer.
