For strategy games this mainly means that player can either build and control medics or similar or player can direct units to return to some structure or place where they are healed.

For most other games this means the player has medical knowledge, can cast healing spells, or can otherwise heal other characters.

As opposed to picking up automagical healing devices often labeled "medikits" that are applied instantly.
