Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 2, 4
Rationale:
Uninsured people, high poverty rates, and lack of care coordination contribute to the growing health disadvantage of the United States, despite it being one of the wealthiest countries and spending more on health care compared to other nations. The U.S. health-care system is not efficient. There is much duplication, yet there are many gaps in care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1, 2, 3, 4
Rationale:
Continuity of care, comfort for the dying family member, autonomy for family members, and case management are all aspects of hospice care.
