Test Bank:NSG 210 Concepts and Trends in Healthcare Questions
and Answers and Rationale
1. Managedcare organizations are insurers that carefully plan and closely
supervise the distribution of healthcare services. What is one of the goals
of managed care?
A) Preventing illness through screening and promotion of health activities
B) Improving training of healthcare professionals
C) Eliminating health disparities between segments of the population
D) Providing hospice or home hospice care
Ans: A
Feedback:
Preventing illness through screening and promotion of health activities is
one of the goals of managed care. Improved training of healthcare
professionals is the priority for international health and not the goal of
managed care. Eliminating health disparities between the segments of
population is a goal of Healthy People 2020. Providing hospice or home
hospice care is only for terminally ill clients.

D) The rise of medical care costs in healthcare
systems Ans: A
Feedback:
Hospitals are using unlicensed assistive personnel to perform some duties
practical and registered nurses once provided. Many are concerned that the

client, or the rise of medical costs are less likely to jeopardize the quality of
care.
