  "description" : "A [VHL Holder](ActorDefinition-VHLHolder.html) initiates a request to a [VHL Sharer](ActorDefinition-VHLSharer.html) to generate a Verified Health Link (VHL) that references one or more health documents. The resulting VHL allows the Holder to subsequently share access to those documents with a [VHL Receiver](ActorDefinition-VHLReceiver.html).\nThe Holder MAY include optional parameters to constrain or protect the issued VHL-such as defining an expiration period, scoping which documents are included, or requiring a passcode for retrieval. These parameters guide the Sharer's issuance of the VHL and influence the conditions under which the associated documents may be accessed.\n\n**Preconditions:**\n  * The [VHL Holder](ActorDefinition-VHLHolder.html) SHALL trust that the [VHL Sharer](ActorDefinition-VHLSharer.html) has been authorized by its jurisdiction to generate VHLs and to provide access to the corresponding health documents.\n  * Optionally, the [VHL Holder](ActorDefinition-VHLHolder.html) has selected consent directives or selective disclosure preferences, as permitted by the applicable content profile.
