Prevention
Question Stem
A 4-year-old child arrives for a well visit; the parent asks
whether the visit is necessary since the child appears healthy.
Which response best explains the distinction between primary
care and primary prevention to emphasize the visit’s value?
Options
A. “Primary care is only for sick visits; primary prevention is for
preventing disease.”
B. “Primary care provides ongoing coordination and health
,promotion; primary prevention focuses on actions that reduce
risk before disease occurs.”
C. “Primary care and primary prevention are the same—both
focus on diagnosing problems early.”
D. “Primary prevention is the doctor’s job; primary care is
mainly administrative follow-up.”
Correct Answer
B
Rationales
• Correct (B): Accurately distinguishes primary care’s
continuous, comprehensive role (including coordination
and health promotion) from primary prevention’s specific
risk-reduction actions before illness.
• A: Incorrect — primary care is not limited to sick visits; it
includes well-child care.
• C: Incorrect — they overlap but are not identical; primary
prevention emphasizes preventing onset, not only early
diagnosis.
• D: Incorrect — both involve clinician roles beyond
administration; prevention is not solely the clinician’s job.
Teaching Point
Primary care coordinates lifelong health promotion; primary
prevention reduces risks before disease onset.

Question Stem
A pediatric clinic is designing coverage policies. Which staffing
model best supports family-centered primary care and
equitable access for routine and acute pediatric needs?
Options
A. Solo pediatrician clinic with limited hours and no cross-
coverage.
B. Interprofessional team including pediatricians, NPs/PNPs,
social workers, and care coordinators with extended access.
C. Walk-in urgent care only staffed by rotating general
practitioners.
D. Exclusive reliance on telemedicine without in-person exam
capacity.
Correct Answer
B
Rationales
, • Correct (B): An interprofessional team with extended
access aligns with family-centered care, improves
coordination, and addresses social determinants.
• A: Incorrect — solo practice with limited hours reduces
access and continuity.
• C: Incorrect — urgent care-only model deprioritizes
preventive, continuity-focused primary care.
• D: Incorrect — telemedicine can augment care but cannot
fully replace in-person assessments or care coordination.
Teaching Point
Interprofessional teams with care coordination improve access
and family-centered outcomes.
