  1. Healthcare Providers: Healthcare providers include hospitals, clinics, doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals who offer medical services and treatments to patients.
  2. Primary Care and Specialized Care: Healthcare is often divided into primary care (general medical care) and specialized care (focused on specific medical conditions or specialties, such as cardiology or orthopedics).
  3. Healthcare Systems: Healthcare systems vary by country and can be publicly funded, privately funded, or a combination of both. They encompass the institutions and infrastructure that provide healthcare services.
  4. Insurance and Reimbursement: Healthcare often involves insurance providers who pay for medical services and treatments, and reimbursement mechanisms can be complex.
  5. Healthcare Technologies: The use of technology in healthcare has grown significantly, with electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine, and medical imaging being prominent examples.
