Correct Answer

D. The best answer is to choose the pharmacy technician action that supports accurate processing, patient safety, legal compliance, and proper workflow for the days supply scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is D because days supply is tested by asking candidates to choose the pharmacy technician action that supports accurate processing, patient safety, legal compliance, and proper workflow.
