Okay, let me think this through. Screening is about detecting health conditions, even if the person isn't showing symptoms. I'm leaning towards option B, but I want to double-check the other choices just to be sure.

Option D is about utilization review, not screening. Screening is all about finding problems early, not evaluating the medical necessity of treatments. Easy choice - B is the way to go.

Haha, I'd love to see the member's face if we told them they had to 'distinguish between minor problems and serious conditions and effectively treat minor problems themselves'! That's Option A, and it's definitely not screening.
