B terminal illness .....

Answer 2

The answer is: B. The person has a terminal illness

An illness would be considered as 'terminal' if the medical professionals have no method to adequately treated and there is a high likelihood that it would be resulted in death.

People with terminal illness tend to not receive medicare benefit and the funding would be allocated to other people with higher expectation of living.
