Research direction
Review existing Synthea modules for conditions like COPD or oxygen saturation, such as those in src/main/resources/modules. Investigate how to add a new module that generates patients requiring home oxygen based on age, diagnosis, and lab results. Look at previous community discussions or linked issues for guidance. The issue suggests missing data fields; identify where to add these in the module files.
