Answer to Question 1

director

Rationale: A scalpel is used for cutting into tissue, while an obturator is used to close an opening and may be placed within a director. An applicator is used for placing substances onto a surface or taking samples from a surface.

Answer to Question 2

A dun message is a reminder regarding the payment of a debt.

Rationale: Never use postcards for collection purposes. Collection letters should be signed by the business manager or person responsible for collections, not the provider. A dun message is a reminder to the patient regarding payment of a debt.
