Answer to Question 1

A, C, E
Recently, the AHRQ developed a set of three broad categories of desirable attributes of a quality indicator: (1) importance; (2) scientific soundness, including clinical logic and measurement properties; and (3) feasibility.

Answer to Question 2

C
A true team is a group where there are collective work products. There is group as well as indi-vidual accountability. If one member is having a problem, it is not only that person's problem but that of the whole team to resolve.
