Answer to Question 1

Health care is certainly a necessity in almost all cases. However, based on budget or income limitations, it may not be possible for some consumers to afford certain services at higher price levels. Thus demand for health care would be very inelastic - in the range of 0.2 - but not perfectly inelastic at 0.0.

Answer to Question 2
