  "description" : "The [VHL Sharer](ActorDefinition-VHLSharer.html) SHALL record the consent granted by a [VHL Holder](ActorDefinition-VHLHolder.html) to authorize the sharing of their health data via a Verified Health Link (VHL). This consent confirms that the Holder agrees to the creation of a VHL and its use by authorized [VHL Receivers](ActorDefinition-VHLReceiver.html) to access specific health documents.\n\nIn this requirement, the VHL Sharer acts as a Consent Recorder, as defined in the [Privacy Consent on FHIR (PCF)](https://profiles.ihe.net/ITI/PCF/index.html) profile. Specifically, the Sharer SHALL initiate the [Access Consent - ITI-108](https://profiles.ihe.net/ITI/PCF/ITI-108.html) transaction to formally capture the Holder's consent.\n\nThe resulting `Consent` resource SHALL document:\n* The data subject (VHL Holder)\n* The purpose of use\n* The authorized data recipients (i.e., permitted VHL Receivers)\n* The scope of data (e.g., specific documents or resource types)\n* The duration or validity period of the consent\n\nThe ITI-108 transaction SHOULD be invoked as part of the actions triggered by a Generate VHL request, particularly when legal, jurisdictional, or organizational policy requires explicit, recorded consent prior to enabling document sharing.\n\nThis requirement enables lawful, transparent sharing of personal health information across organizations and trust domains.",
