Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Voluntary health agencies are committed to specific diseases, organ or body structures, health and welfare of special groups, or particular phases of health. Philanthropic groups support research and programs. These organizations provide major sources of help in preventing disease, promoting health, treating illness, consumer education, and advocacy and research. Unfortunately, there continue to be overlaps among private, voluntary, and public agencies, but without voluntary agencies, fewer services would be available.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The overall goal of care management is to improve the coordination of services provided to clients who are enrolled in a care management program. Examples of groups of people who may be served by care management services include the elderly, children from low-income families who receive Medicaid services, and groups of people with chronic illnesses. The other groups do not represent groups who are typically enrolled in a care management program.
