In the upcoming version, we will also include a O2M to evaluation team members, as in the new surgery model (see AIR30 community DB for details). At the end of the day, we try to have a generic patient evaluation/encounter model, that can fit in many scenarios, from a single doctor office, to a complex, inpatient patient evaluation.
