Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Collaboration is a big part of care coordination. Without the collaboration, there would be no care coordination. Patients asking for their needs to be met does not collaborate care. Nurses do not do all the work in care collaboration. Medical diagnoses are one small part that drives the need for care collaboration.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The priority population is the most vulnerable and the frail, because they have the most health care needs. Other populations do need health care, but they do not always have immediate need of the health care system.
