- A variety of care settings, requiring significant integration across prevention, diagnosis, and treatment pathways
- High levels of technological innovation
- Large organizational size, often resulting from mergers and consolidations, with substantial economic budgets
- Significant impact on the quality of life of individuals and communities, with high media visibility
