I’m leaning towards D, A and B only, since prohibiting specialist services doesn’t seem right. We definitely talked about the importance of specialists in our study group.

I'm feeling confident about this one. The prompt clearly states that care coordination can integrate services and care for the whole person, so I'll look for the answer choice that reflects those benefits.

I'd go with D. Care coordination is about streamlining the patient experience, not limiting access to specialists. That would be counterproductive.
