Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
A health risk appraisal (HRA) is an easily administered, confidential instrument used to determine life expectancy based on current risk behaviors. The HRA can also calculate the amount of risk that could be avoided if lifestyle behaviors were changed. Some HRAs determine the person's readiness to change behavior. An HRA can be used as a teaching tool that gives positive feedback for healthy behaviors and encouragement and information for changing those unhealthy behaviors. An HRA is often completed on an interactive computer program and provides an accurate individualized report to each employee in a timely manner.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
A feasibility or business plan approach to communicating your program is used to establish a common language and understanding of the project by everyone in the organization. A sample business plan might include the following: Executive summary: A short summary of the health promotion plan, which includes the purpose, methods, expected benefits, and costs. Methods: How, when, and where the plan will be put into action. Expected benefits: List of the outcomes for the program. Costs: An accurate projection of program costs.
