ANS: B
The medical specialty of andrology is considered too narrow. Many private insurance companies will reimburse for illness but not preventive care, such as education or health promotion activities.

Therefore good health practices and preventive care are sometimes available in large industries or organized sports (sports medicine). The most complete care is currently offered by the military.
