An adult patient is being evaluated for tuberculosis infection with a Mantoux
test. The PPD result is 10.5 mm. The patient denies weight loss, cough, and
night sweats, and the results of a chest x-ray are negative. The patient reports
that he is undocumented and is fearful about being reported to a government
agency. What is most appropriate for the nurse practitioner?
The nurse practitioner has a legal duty to report the patient to the local federal
agency responsible for people without documentation
The nurse practitioner is legally mandated to report people without
documentation to state authorities
The nurse practitioner should call the state health department to report that
the patient has a tuberculosis infection
The nurse practitioner has an ethical duty to provide quality health care to
patients
This is an old question written by ignorant people who don't know people are
NOT illegal! Rewritten to state lacks documentation.
The NP has an ethical duty to provide quality health care to patients
Explanation
Health caregivers are not legally required to report illegal citizens to the state
or local authorities. This patient does not have the signs and symptoms of
,active tuberculosis (TB) disease (cough, weight loss, night sweats) and has a
negative chest x-ray. Therefore, he has latent TB infection and is not
contagious. Only patients with active TB disease (has signs/symptoms) must
be reported to the state public health department.

by Congress in 2003. All of the following statements about HIPAA are correct
EXCEPT:

It is applicable to all health care providers and payers who bill
electronically and transmit health information over the Internet
Patients have the right to view their mental health and psychotherapy-related
health information
It gives patients the right to view and correct errors in their medical records
Patients have the right to view their mental health and psychotherapy-related
health information

released to patients even if they request those records. Otherwise, any type of
medical records can be released if requested by the health insurance or
health plan for billing purposes and reimbursement.
HIPAA applies to all health care providers, health plans, health insurance
companies, medical clearinghouses, and others who bill electronically and
transmit health information over the Internet.
Some Native Americans may view illness or disease as being caused by
which of the following?
Poor blood circulation in the body
A punishment by the "spirits" for wrongful actions against others or for failure
to follow spiritual rules
An imbalance of the flow of energy in the body
An imbalance of the hot and cold energy forces in the body
A punishment by the "spirits" for wrongful actions against others or for failure
to follow spiritual rules
Explanation
, Some Native Americans may believe that illness is punishment by the spirits
for wrong actions or from failure to follow spiritual rules. Shamans "cure" the
illness by performing rituals and using herbal medicines. Medicine pouches
that are tied to the patient by a string are believed to help cure the illness. Do
not remove such pouches without the patient's (or parent's) permission.
