       in a particular role such as SubjectofCare, Practitioner, and Agent. Very few attributes
       are specific to any role and so Person is kept lean. Most attributes are expected to be
       tied to the role the Person plays rather than the Person himself. Examples of that are
       Guardian (SubjectofCare), ContactParty (SubjectOfCare, Practitioner), and multipleBirthInd
       (SubjectofCare)."/>
