Okay, I've got it. The options seem to be either adding another VLAN attachment or modifying the existing one. I'll need to think through the pros and cons of each approach.

I'd eliminate C and D quickly - referral frequency and patient volume aren't really about communication quality. Narrowing to A and B, B feels more comprehensive.

This seems like a straightforward pricing strategy question. I think the key is to focus on the product's uniqueness and the need to recover development costs quickly before the competitor arrives.

I always get confused between estate and inheritance taxes. I think C isn't right because the deceased can't really be taxed on their ability to leave property, can they?
