Hospital auditor: The Rodriguez family stipulated that the funds they donated to the neurological clinic all be used ...
Julie-VAugust 21, 2019
Answer Explanation
Hi LSAT Max,
I was able to choose (D) as the correct answer, but was hesitant at first because of the word "strictly". Is it acceptable in this answer choice because the auditor thinks that the diagnostic technology doesn't fall under minimizing patients' suffering, while the administrator argues that it does?
Thank you in advance for the help!

Thanks for the question! Remember the type of question we’re dealing with here: we’re trying to figure out what the main point at issue is between the hospital auditor and the clinic administrator. In (D), the word “strictly†is being used to modify “adhering†because the argument is over how closely the neurological clinic is adhering to the Rodriguez’s family’s stipulations. Does developing new technologies count as minimizing suffering? One thinks it does, the other thinks it doesn’t, as you noted, and that’s how the word “strictly†comes into play. Hope this helps! Feel free to ask further questions if you have any.
