Question 5 of 10
How does the increased lifespan in American impact the health care delivery
system?
O A. The elderly population makes up the highest percentage of health
care users. The demand for care has increased, slowing the
delivery process.
O B. Because people are living longer, they are working longer as well.
Health care providers are remaining in the field longer than before,
decreasing the demand for new providers.
O C. The increase in lifespan has had no effect at all on the health care
delivery system. People still need care, but now they need it later
in their lives than before.
O D. The increase in lifespan has decreased the amount of care most
people need in their lifetime, meaning there is less demand for
geriatric care providers.
