Answer to Question 1

B
Rawls acknowledges that inequities are inevitable in society, but he tries to justify them by es-tablishing a system in which everyone benefits, especially the least advantaged. This is an attempt to address the inequalities that result from birth, natural endowments, and historic circumstances. The other choices relate to libertarianism.

Answer to Question 2

D
The NHQR is intended to serve a number of purposes, including the documentation of whether health care quality is stable, improving, or declining over time; demonstrating the validity (or lack) of concerns about quality; and providing national benchmarks against which specific states, health plans, and providers can compare their performance.
