 * The term "healthcare delivery organization" is not a phrase or a dictionary terminology, so we can't apply WP:NOTDICTIONARY as a standard. It is more a concept in healthcare delivery and seems viable as an encyclopedic term. Specifically looking at the significant Google Books and Google Scholar links (apart from the significant links on Google Search) about this subject, I would say this is a Keep for the benefit of the encyclopedic reader, who wishes to understand what are the facilities that a healthcare delivery organization offers.

 * As it stands it doesn't do that. Is Healthcare Delivery Organization a term with an agreed definition in common use? It seems to cover all kinds of things. Rathfelder (talk) 11:22, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, the article can be improved if it doesn't do that. But sources are quite clear on describing the concept of healthcare delivery organization. For example, the following scholarly sources talk quite descriptively about various aspects of a healthcare delivery organization:
 * How clinical engineering adds value in healthcare delivery organisations
 * How to transition to becoming an integrated healthcare delivery organisation
 * Pharmacist systems in healthcare delivery organisations
 * Human and behavioural dynamics in healthcare delivery organisations
 * Knowledge Management in healthcare delivery organizations
 * Why healthcare delivery organizations are professional bureaucracies
 * How healthcare delivery systems in healthcare delivery organizations are organised
 * Board of trustees in healthcare delivery organisations
 * Importantly, these sources and numerous more contain considerable descriptives of the concept of healthcare delivery organizations. Therefore, in my opinion, we can't dismiss this concept as a dictionary definition. If the article is not well written, we need editors to improve the same. Thanks.
