Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Community health centers serve the entire community for primary health care (PHC) services, regardless of income. They are located in a high need or medically underserved community, which can be urban or rural.

Answer to Question 2

One significant problem is poor access to care. Access can refer to inability to pay for care and inability to access care. Cost refers to the health care expenditures that happen to pay for the ser-vices received. Quality refers to the quality of health care that is provided. Advances in technol-ogy refer to the medical advancements made to treat diseases.
