Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
Outcome health status indicators are used to measure the impact of the interventions on popula-tion health. In this case, a 50-year-old woman receiving an annual mammogram will have an impact on the population health when considering those who are receiving the screening. The other examples do not look at population health as an outcome or are not occurring at the indi-vidual-level.
