Answer to Question 1

C
An interviewer of either gender, who acts professionally, should be able to interview a patient of either gender. The other listed options are important to have a successful interview.

Age, chief complaint, present health, and family history are typically found on a health history form because each can impact the patient's health. Health insurance provider information, while needed for billing purposes, would not be found on the history form.
