Selected Answer: D
D. Review the provider contract.Terminating the provider contract (Option A) might be premature without understanding the contractual obligations and the specific details of the breach. Conducting a BIA (Option B) is important but secondary to understanding the legal and contractual aspects. Informing senior management (Option C) is a crucial step but should typically follow an initial assessment and understanding of the situation based on the contract review.
