description	Profile for observations that represent question and answer pairs from from surveys/questionnaires such as Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) screening instruments.	This Observation provides the death date, death location, death pronouncer, and date pronounced dead. If the actual date of death is known, set value to type dateTime. If the date of death is not known, and a range is known, set value to type Period.	Values Differ
