Answer to Question 1

ANS: D

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, C, D
The success of discharge planning requires careful attention to the patient's economic status. Access to housing is the first priority of the seriously mentally ill, and lack of income and health insurance is a barrier to effective treatment and rehabilitation. Although important aspects of ongoing care of the seriously mentally ill patient, ongoing interdisciplinary evaluation and individual psychotherapy are not economic factors.
