Any health care plan that does not cover comprehensive annua

What is the conclusion in this argument and what is the conclusion indicator?

Can this problem be solved by elimination using causality ?

Health Care Plan doesn't cover annual checkups (X) -> Risk life of members (Y)

Does A have any cause - effect relationship ...Why is A wrong?

Why is C wrong?



Any health care plan that does not cover comprehensive annual checkups is risking the lives of its members, who are unlikely to obtain care that is not covered by their health care plans, and who may have conditions that, if not detected early, are more likely to become fatal.

The argument above logically depends on which of the following assumptions?

a)Health care plans cannot save lives unless they also cover medical procedures that treat any potentially fatal conditions that are detected.

b) Many potentially lethal conditions are likely to be detected during an annual checkup.

c)Doctors who perform comprehensive annual checkups charge high fees, such that health care plan members cannot afford checkups that are not covered.

d)People who are members of health plans are more likely to have potentially fatal conditions than those who are not members of health plans.

e)People are less likely to purchase a health care plan that does not cover annual checkups, thus negatively affecting the insurers' profitability.

IMO B
The tone of the argument is conditional and not Must Be True. For the argument to hold it has to be assumed that Annual Medical Checkups detect some or many pottentially serious problems.
The user of 'Many' in answer choice B satisfies the conditional tone of the argument.

The conclusion is the first sentence of the argument - "any healthcare plan that does not cover comprehensive annual checkups is risking the lives of its members" The premises are that its' members are unlikely to obtain uncovered care and are people who may have conditions that may be fatal without early detection.

A) The argument you need to fill in is about risking lives, not saving lives, and the "any potentially fatal conditions" also puts this out of scope.

B) This links the fatal conditions to the annual check up (if you negate it and say that fatal conditions are not detected in a checkup then the argument would be weakened).

C) the fees they charge are irrelevant - the argument already stated that members were unlikely to get uncovered care so the fact that it is expensive does not affect the argument.

D)The relationship between people who have coverage and those who do not is not important to the argument and is outside the scope.

E) the profitability of the insurer is not the issue of the argument, Thus E is incorrect.
