      <description
                   value="The [VHL Sharer](ActorDefinition-VHLSharer.html) MAY record audit events when health data is accessed through a Verified Health Link (VHL). These events support accountability, traceability, and compliance with applicable security and privacy regulations.

    Audit records MAY include the following metadata:
    * Timestamp of the access event
    * Identity of the accessing actor (e.g., person or system)
    * Type and identifier of the accessed resource (e.g., DocumentReference)
    * Purpose of access, where available (e.g., treatment, consent verification)
    * Outcome of the event (e.g., success, failure)

    Audit events SHALL be represented using the FHIR `AuditEvent` resource, and SHOULD conform to applicable IHE profiles such as ATNA where appropriate. Implementers MAY define additional audit logging behavior to meet jurisdictional or organizational policies."/>
