Explanation:

For question 49: In the U.S. healthcare system, well - off and well people often have better access to preventive care and regular check - ups, so they are more likely to obtain health services compared to sick people who may face financial or other barriers. Physicians often set up practices in areas with higher income (not necessarily where the most sick people are). The sickest people may not always get more care due to insurance and cost issues, and many uninsured sick people struggle to get adequate care.
For question 50: Shrinking middle classes overseas would likely be a negative factor as the middle class is often a key group that can afford and drive the demand for international medical services (such as medical tourism). Overcapacity in US healthcare institutions can lead to institutions looking for international patients, training of foreign nationals at US institutions spreads medical knowledge and can lead to international medical collaborations, and globalization of all industries (including medicine) promotes international medicine.

Answer:

1. Well people are more likely to obtain health services than are sick people.
2. shrinking middle classes overseas
