What evaluation criterion would address this?
1. Resource needs.
2. Equity.
3. Quality.

Explanation: 3. Health care policies must safeguard individual rights and be capable of implementation or enforcement. Requiring a homeless shelter resident to provide proof of TB status safeguards the other residents and is a measure of the quality of the policy. Resource needs, equity, and feasibility are not addressed by this criterion.
