Morphology
The phrase 'care delivery' is directly compositional: it denotes the delivery (provision) of care, so a learner who knows 'care' (treatment/support) and 'delivery' (the act of providing) can infer it refers to providing healthcare services. The 'delivery of X' pattern is common across languages and follows ordinary noun-noun composition, making this meaning predictable for a B1 learner.
Etymology
Care delivery uses the image of delivery, like bringing a package to someone's door, to show health workers bringing care to patients. So it means how health services are organized and given to people ('giving health care').
