Detail the repercussions that can result if the definitions section is not carefully drafted. Identify a real life health care case that relates to inadequate/poorly written definitions. Utilize a minimum of two scholarly and/or peer-reviewed sources that were published within the last five years to support the ideas you express in your posting.
