An Encounter (in community medicine) is very much different from an Episode of Care. An Encounter happens when patient and healthcare system "meet" in some way, it is one-off. It can encompass a multitude of Reasons for Encounter, about different care targets. An Episode of Care is a time range during which one particular care target is handled. It manifests itself during 1..many Encounters, each of which is about 1..many care targets (problems).
