hello all, can any one clarify my doubt. we want to capture patient contact info, i'm little bit confusing, whether to use patient.contact or RelatedPerson resource? where we can use RelatedPerson Exactly? i mean when to use which?
Thank you.

RelatedPerson is to capture people who can "do" things - author data, perform activities, witness things, etc. Patient.contact is just a list of names and phone numbers that can be called for different purposes.
