sigh Forum Junior Topics: 73 Posts: 1743	Nov 10, 2008 - 9:58 AM       #7 Compliance...the most important is patient/doctor bonds...that's includes how well doctor will communicate to the pt all info about his condition and how far the pt trust the doctor. Age, gender, marriage, job has nothing to do with complience, the second what can influence complaence is cost of treatment and affordability. So, the right answer should be 4 if any.
