Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Insurance companies attempt to reduce moral hazard problems by requiring patients to pay higher deductibles or copayments thereby compelling the insured to share a greater proportion of incurred costs. Insurers can reduce adverse selection risk by limiting the period of open enrollment in health insurance plans, requiring physical exams, and insuring entire groups, thereby ensuring a diversity of health statuses.
