Answer options

• A. 70%
• B. 80%
• C. 90%
• D. 100%

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, 90%, as this is the mandated successful follow-up rate set by the American College of Surgeons for cancer programs. Options A, B, and D do not meet the minimum requirement, with 100% being unrealistic in practical terms.
