Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

B
The case manager has a need to know to coordinate continuous care. Information that was shared in confidence is not necessary unless it has some bearing on the patient's care needs. On admission to the hospital, the patient signed a permission to treat form, which allows all per-sons providing care to have information needed to provide the care.
