this was a tricky one i am sure alot of us thought it was A but the answer is -H.

Because Medicare coverage lasts for life and because she has the longest life expectancy, a
white female nonsmoker is likely to use more Medicare services and funds than men, African-
Americans and smokers during her lifetime.
