Answer to Question 1

D
The focus step includes identifying the purpose and articulating the goals and objectives for the
partnership. The listen step includes becoming sensitized to the health care needs and political nature
of the potential consumer partner. The study step seeks both representative and opposing perspectives
from consumer group meetings, focus groups, relevant literature, and interviews. The assess step
determines the need, value, context, and boundaries for establishing the partnership.

Answer to Question 2

C
Consumer partnerships have the following characteristics: an increase in the number of voices
supporting or opposing an issue, a larger voting block that represents the same political position, a
broader funding base of financial support, and enhancement of power.
