Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
This scenario raises the ethical issues of autonomy, beneficence, and justice with regard to access to care.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
The potential conflict between autonomy and the public good (beneficence) is a prominent feature of many of the Healthy People 2020 National Health Goals. As delineated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (2000), the health indicators used to measure progress toward reaching these goals include physical activity, overweight and obesity, tobacco use, substance abuse, responsible sexual activity, and immunization. Clearly, with the exception of immunization and substance abuse, these indicators are health behaviors that carry no mandates.
