However, widespread adoption of these accounts will soon undermine the public\u2019s health. One reason for this is that most people will be reluctant to deplete their accounts to pay for regular preventive examinations, so that in many cases a serious illness will go undetected until it is far advanced. Another reason is that poor people, who will not be able to afford health savings accounts, will no longer receive vaccinations against infectious diseases. <\/p>\n<p>The statements above, if true, most support which of the following?<\/p>\n<p>A. Wealthy individuals will not be affected negatively by health savings accounts.<br \/>\nB. Private health insurance will no longer be available.<br \/>\nC. Most diseases are detected during regular preventive examinations.<br \/>\nD. Some people without health savings accounts are likely to contract infectious diseases.<br \/>\nE. The causal relationship between an individual\u2019s health and that person\u2019s medical care has been adequately documented.<\/p>\n<div>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/inference-revision-advocates-insist-that-health-savings-193140.html\">Question Discussion &amp; Explanation<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Correct Answer<\/strong> <span style=\"background-color:#fff;color:#fff\">- D -<\/span> (click and drag your mouse to see the answer)\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>Like these questions?<\/strong> Get the GMAT Club question collection: <a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/tests\/\">online at GMAT Club<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fentity%2FGMAT-Club%2FB0048PPF3U%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref_%3Dntt_athr_dp_pel_1&tag=gmatclub-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957\">on your Kindle<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=PJTlq5NYqfE&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=blog&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fgmat-toolkit%252Fid328345537%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\">on your iPhone\/iPad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/category\/blog\/gmat-tests\/\"><strong>Browse all GMAT Questions of the Day<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to GMAT Question of the Day:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=GMAT-Question-of-the-day&amp;loc=en_US\">E-mail<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/GMAT-Question-of-the-day\">RSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Math If then what is the value of ?
