Non-substantive
The profile name of "Cancer-related surgical procedure" is too narrow. It should include diagnostic procedures (e.g.: fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies) if it is in scope to exchange data that supports diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring.
The profile supports this notion by including "diagnostic intent" as one of the concepts in the [Procedure Intent Value Set|https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/fhir-mCODE-ig/ValueSet-mcode-procedure-intent-vs.html|https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/fhir-mCODE-ig/ValueSet-mcode-procedure-intent-vs.html],]. Moreover, there are some terms in the value set (e.g.: screening - procedure intent) which are not really performed surgically.
Rather than keep this narrow scope for the profile name, it would be more inclusive to rename this profile instead to "Cancer-related Procedure".
