Both Composition and DiagnosticReport are listed under Event. How do I choose which one to use? For example, if Lab want to send lab results back to hospital, should that be DiagnosticReport or Composition?

Composition is an agnostic packaging mechanism. Lab results would always be a DiagnosticReport. You could choose to wrap that DiagnosticReport in a FHIR document, starting with a Composition
