Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Many older people have special, population-specific health care needs. Case management services frequently target the elderly population, specifically homebound individuals or those with complex problems. However, not all older persons require a case manager. The other elderly groups are not the primary target of case management services.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Public policy encompasses the choices made regarding goals, priorities, and how resources are allocated. Policy choices reflect the values, beliefs, and attitudes of those designing the policy. The influence of the president, preferences of Americans, and amount of financing related to the legislation are not as important as the beliefs, attitudes, and values of the policy.
