Answer 1

Check these:
- right to choose doctors — Yes
- right to quality care — Yes
- right to make treatment decisions — Yes

Do not check these:
- right to treat doctors disrespectfully — No (patients are expected to be respectful; this is not a right)
- right to tell hospitals how to do business — No (patients can give feedback or file complaints, but they do not have a right to run the hospital or dictate business policies)
