I think B is the right answer, but I'm just glad I don't have to go to the hospital and risk catching an infection. That would be the worst outcome of all!

Ha! Waiting times at the doctor's office are always a good indicator of quality. If I have to sit there for hours, that's a clear sign of a poorly run practice. Option A all the way!

I think the percentage of plan physicians who are board-certified is also crucial. It shows the level of expertise within the provider network.

I'm not sure about this one. Aren't the other options also important quality measures? Waiting times, immunization rates, and hospital-acquired infections all seem relevant to me.

The correct answer is B) percentage of plan physicians who are board-certified. This is a structure measure that reflects the quality of the healthcare resources available.
