Answer: C) A new patient with the chief complaint of "I am here to
establish care"
Rationale: A comprehensive health history is appropriate for a new patient
establishing care because it establishes a baseline for all future interactions .
The patient is new to the provider, so a complete history including past
medical history, family history, social history, and review of systems is
necessary to identify any underlying conditions . Focused histories are more
appropriate for specific acute complaints like ankle sprain, URI, or hand
laceration .
