Answer
A
exposure to toxins and chemicals
B
absence of public transportation options
C
inability to see a doctor during work hours
D
shortage of specialized services
E
lack of money to pay for care

Explanation

Barriers to obtaining health care include problems getting to a provider, finding an available appointment or specialist, and paying for care. Without public transportation, a person may not be able to reach a clinic; work-hour conflicts and a shortage of specialized services can limit access; and lack of money can prevent someone from receiving care. Exposure to toxins and chemicals can harm health, but it is not itself a barrier to obtaining health care.
