Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, F
LNCs perform many different services and activities, including organizing and analyzing medical records and related materials; preparing chronologies of health care events; and identifying standards of care. It is essential that the LNC be prepared, having reviewed the case and all related materials very thoroughly. The LNC would probably not create a PowerPoint slide presentation, examine all witnesses in preparation for the trial, personally complete the autopsy, or prepare charts and tables to illustrate the important legal points.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Preventing pregnancy among teenagers can reduce the dropout rate, welfare dependency, low birth weight, and infant mortality. According to an analysis by the National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, the estimated cost of teen childbearing in the United States cost taxpayers (federal, state, and local) is at least 109 billion.
