Updated the wording from "MAY be used" to "IS used" to provide clearer guidance on the resource's intended use and reduce ambiguity.

I'd move the bold from the IS to the "new".

Same update needs to be made here on the allergies, to match the update to the guidance.

Replaced “novel medications” with “medications administered or prescribed during the latest assessment and not available on existing records”. Replaced “novel allergies” with “new allergies”. Updated MedicationStatement guidance from “MAY be used” to “IS used” to clarify the intended use of the resource and remove ambiguity.
