/* =====================================================================
   AMERICAN TELEHEALTH REVIEW — v7 "Vital Coast" Design System
   ====================================================================
   Distinct shift from clinical navy v5 → modern consumer telehealth.
   Primary: deep teal (medical credibility, calm, trustworthy)
   Accent:  warm coral (THE catchy pop — friendly, warm, action)
   Tertiary: butter sunshine yellow (joy, used sparingly for highlights)
   Backgrounds: warm off-white + soft mint tint
   Type: Instrument Serif (display) + Inter (body)
   Radius: 8/14/20px — softer, friendlier than v5
