CapabilityStatement for the Medication Overview Responder actor in the IHE PHARM MEOW profile.

The Responder is a server that stores and/or assembles medication overview data for patients and serves it in response to Consumer requests. It supports PHARM-11 (Query Medication Resources) as a required capability, and optionally PHARM-12 (Retrieve Medication Document) when the Document Option is declared.

How the Responder obtains its data (continuous store, on-demand aggregation, document assembly) is an implementation concern outside the scope of this profile.
