Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C
When sociocultural differences between healthcare providers and patients are not appreciated or communicated effectively in clinical encounters, patient dissatisfaction, poor adherence, poorer health outcomes, and racial/ethnic disparities in healthcare easily happen.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Preventive care, screening, and health promotion activities are not considered health disparities. Examples include mammograms, prenatal care, and blood pressure checks. Frequent fast food meals, containing high fat content, is considered a health disparity due to possible lack of money or access to healthy meals.
