“Though they soon will, patients should not have a legal right to see their medical records. As a doctor, I see two reasons for this. First, giving them access will be time-wasting because it will significantly reduce the amount of time that medical staff can spend on more important duties, by forcing them to retrieve and return files. Second, if my experience is anything to go by, no patients are going to ask for access to their records anyway.” This is kind of like explain the discretionary kind of question. You have find the best answer to explain.
Which one of the following, if true, establishes that the doctor’s second reason does not cancel out the first? (A) The new law will require that doctors, when seeing a patient in their office, must be ready to produce the patient’s records immediately, not just ready to retrieve them. Out of scope, this is not an issue about patient’s legal right to see their medical records And did not establishes that the doctor’s second reason does not cancel out the first
(B) The task of retrieving and returning files would fall to the lowest-paid member of a doctor’s office staff. Out of scope. Doesn’t matter how much medical staff get paid, it still wastes resource after grant patients the right of see their medical records. Plus this answer did not establihes that the doctor’s second reason does not cancel out the first.
(C) Any patients who asked to see their medical records would also insist on having details they did not understand explained to them. This is right answer, although there is not many people going to ask for access to their Medical record, but if everyone of them also insist on having details they did not understand explained to them. This will waste tremendous amount of time of medical staff which support the 1st reason of this argument. So, the 2nd reason doesn’t cancel out the first.
(D) The new law does not rule out that doctors may charge patients for extra expenses incurred specifically in order to comply with the new law. Out of scope. Pay extra money to comply to the new have nothing to do with this argument. (A) A)(E) Some doctors have all allowing their patients access to their medical records, but those doctors’ patients took no advantage of this policy. Out of scope, weather patients took advantage of doctor’s policy has nothing to do with the argument. |
