           action, the definition is applied as described in the $apply operation of the ActivityDefinition
           resource, and the resulting resource is added as an activity to the CarePlan. If the ActivityDefinit
          ion includes library references, those libraries will be available to the evaluated expressions.
           If those libraries have parameters, those parameters will be bound by name to the parameters
           given to the operation. In addition, parameters to the $apply operation are available
           within dynamicValue expressions as context variables, accessible by the name of the parameter,
           prefixed with a percent (%) symbol. For a more detailed description, refer to the PlanDefinition
