Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The Social Security Act provides funds to insure currently uninsured children. The Balanced Budget Act shifted payment in home health care. The HIPAA was intended to help people keep their health insurance when moving from one place to another. The ACA of 2010 provides the opportunity for all to purchase health insurance.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A measure of a patient's ability to read, comprehend, and act on medical instructions is health literacy. Resilience has to do with the factors that allow people to resist the effects of vulnerabil-ity. Social justice describes justice with respect to the concepts of egalitarianism and equality. Health disparity refers to the wide variations in health services and health status among certain population groups.
