US Core MedicationDispense Profile

13.135.1

Description
In the Medication Dispense Profile, under "Each MedicationDispense Must Support", #1 is "the encounter associated with the dispense". The profile references "context" of US Core Encounter Profile" 0..1
Should this be 1..1?
It seems there would be a healthcare visit of some sort (even a telephone call) to trigger the medication order and then subsequent dispense. There may be many MedicationDispense associated with one encounter but each individual prescription would point back to the encounter.
