Notes

NOTE 1 The personnel of a healthcare organization that is a healthcare provider may include both healthcare professionals and others which participate in the provision of healthcare.

NOTE 2 This International Standard includes only two specializations of healthcare provider. This is not meant to exclude the possibility of other specializations. In jurisdictions where other kinds of healthcare actors are included in the concept of healthcare provider, the necessary specializations may be added.

NOTE 3 According to this definition, organizations solely responsible for the funding, payment, or reimbursement of healthcare provision are not healthcare providers; for the purpose of this International Standard they are considered as healthcare third parties.
