___ is a person's capacity to access and use information and services for health-related decisions.

• A. Health advocacy
• B. Health insurance
• C. Education
• D. Health literacy

Answer: (D)

Health literacy is the ability to obtain, understand, evaluate, and use health information to make informed decisions about your health. It means being able to access information and services, interpret instructions and labels, communicate with healthcare providers, and apply what you learn to manage care. This fits the statement precisely because it emphasizes using information and services to guide health-related decisions. Other options refer to different ideas: health advocacy is about promoting health actions for oneself or others, health insurance is a financial product, and education is general learning not specifically tied to health information and services.
