It can be used to generate a follow-up inquiry, and must correspond to the other fields in the follow-up contact address.

When a patient's current address is unknown or the patient is for some reason not to be contacted (e.g., patient is a minor child), the most current name, address and phone number of another contact, such as a relative or neighbor are needed. This information may also be useful for conducting epidemiological or research studies.
