Medical record intake goal capture
Intake goal capture defines why the record packet is being prepared, who may receive it, what language is needed, and what timing matters. This should happen before sensitive upload so the packet stays purpose-limited and reviewable.
What to capture first
The intake step records purpose and constraints. It does not ask for a medical decision or decide urgency.
