What Is Healthcare Systems and Why It Matters

Rather than starting with a textbook definition, think about when and why people encounter Healthcare Systems in real life. Understanding the "why" first makes the technical details much easier to grasp. The simplest test of understanding: can you explain it in one sentence to someone who's never heard of it?
