MULTIPLE CHOICE


1. WHICH BEST DESCRIBES THE PRIMARY REASON THAT AMERICANS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HEALTH
CARE?

A. POLITICIANS ARE DISCUSSING HOW TO IMPROVE HEALTH CARE.

B. THE MEDIA HAS PROVIDED MIXED MESSAGES ABOUT THE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.

C. OUR NATIONAL HEALTH CARE COSTS KEEP INCREASING.

D. THE NEW HEALTH CARE SYSTEM OFFERS FREE SERVICES TO AMERICANS.

ANS:: C

THE PRIMARY REASON FOR THE FOCUS ON HEALTH CARE IS THE CONSTANTLY INCREASING COSTS,
WHICH CANNOT BE SUSTAINED. THE COSTS OF CARING FOR THE SICK ACCOUNTED FOR THE MAJORITY
OF ESCALATING HEALTH CARE DOLLARS, WHICH INCREASED FROM 5.7% OF THE GROSS DOMESTIC
PRODUCT IN 1965 TO 17.8% IN 2015. POLITICIANS AND THE MEDIA BOTH INFLUENCE AMERICANS’
PERCEPTIONS ABOUT HEALTH CARE; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT THE PRIMARY REASON WHY AMERICANS
ARE CONCERNED. THE NEW HEALTH CARE SYSTEM WILL CHANGE THE HEALTH CARE ACCESS AND
AVAILABILITY, BUT WILL NOT NECESSARILY BE OFFERING ANY FREE SERVICES TO AMERICANS.



DIF: COGNITIVE LEVEL: UNDERSTAND (COMPREHENSION)



2. A NURSE HAS BEGUN TO LOBBY WITH POLITICIANS FOR CHANGES TO THE HEALTH CARE
SYSTEM. WHY IS THIS INVOLVEMENT IMPORTANT?

A. NURSES, AS CENTRAL CHARACTERS IN SEVERAL POPULAR TV SERIES, ARE CURRENTLY VERY

VISIBLE IN AMERICAN MEDIA.

B. NURSES ARE PRIMARILY RESPONSIBLE FOR MANAGING THE VARIOUS UNITS IN OUR HEALTH
CARE SYSTEM.

C. NURSES ARE THE LARGEST SEGMENT OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS.

D. NURSES ARE THE ONLY GROUP THAT IS EMPLOYED BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF HOSPITALS.
