What term describes the health outcomes of a defined group of people, along with the distribution of health outcomes within the group?

Choice A reason:

Diabetes in a genetically predisposed group is not entirely avoidable due to the genetic risk factors involved. Therefore, labeling it as 'avoidable' is not accurate. Additionally, health disparities are generally considered unacceptable, as they represent inequalities that need to be addressed.

Choice B reason:

While lifestyle changes can help manage diabetes, the genetic predisposition cannot be avoided, making this choice inaccurate. Moreover, health disparities, especially those based on genetics, are not acceptable as they often lead to unequal health outcomes.

Choice C reason:

Genetic predisposition to diabetes is an unavoidable factor; individuals cannot change their genetic makeup. Such health disparities are considered unacceptable because they can lead to inequitable health outcomes and access to care.

Choice D reason:

This choice is incorrect because, although genetic predisposition is unavoidable, the resulting health disparity is not acceptable. Efforts should be made to provide equitable care and support to those with genetic risks for diabetes.

Choice A reason:

Better Care is one of the goals of the Triple Aim plan, which focuses on improving the overall quality of care, including patient safety, effectiveness, and satisfaction.

Choice B reason:

Universal Health Care, while a broader goal of many health reform efforts, is not explicitly one of the Triple Aim goals of the ACA. The Triple Aim specifically targets improvements in individual care, health of populations, and reduction in costs.

Choice C reason:

Affordable Care is another goal of the Triple Aim plan, aiming to reduce the cost of health care for individuals and the government without sacrificing quality.

Choice D reason:

Healthy People/Healthy Communities is aligned with the Triple Aim's goal of improving the health of populations by addressing public health and preventive care.
