Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Alternative providers are not normally included in the federal Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 legislation that mandates confidentiality in

Accurate online information can be difficult to find and costs for treatment may be covered by
some insurance plans.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Triage involves the initial screening of victims for the purpose of prioritizing
treatment and making the most effective and efficient use of both human and material resources.
