8. Clinical example #1 Patient diagnosed with migraine.
Stable employment.
BUT
Supporting more people than assumed.
Choice of medication needs to consider cost

9. Clinical example #2 Patient needs colon cancer screening
FOBT clinically appropriate
BUT
Patient is homeless or has unstable housing
Other screening arrangements need to be considered
