Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patients may be noncompliant with a healthcare regimen for several reasons, including a lack of support system, not understanding the plan, the plan being inconvenient, or the plan being financially inhibitive. These factors can significantly impact a patient's ability to follow through with care recommendations. Being stubborn by nature (D) is not typically considered a primary reason for noncompliance in a healthcare context, as noncompliance often stems from external factors or barriers rather than personality traits alone.
