This profile sets the minimum requirement for documenting any communication, whether it is planned or unsuccessful. A communication refers to the exchange of information from a sender to a receiver, and these entities can encompass patients, practitioners, related individuals, organizations, or devices. The resource serves as a record of these interactions.
