Represents a practitioner's role at an organization/location -- the tenant-scoped access/role binding (the "actor"). Links a Practitioner to an Organization and Location(s) and carries the clinical role code(s). A practitioner may have one or more PractitionerRoles, including more than one active at the same organization. This is NOT the EMR user: the user's stable identity is the Practitioner (which carries the user-account identifier). Use PractitionerRole to differentiate providers by role (e.g. list only doctors, route a task to a nurse), not to represent the login.
