MULTIPLE CHOICE
1.A small, rural hospital is part of̣ an Accountable Care Organization (ACO)
and is designated as a Level 1 ACO. What is part of̣ this designation?
a.Bonuses based on achievement of̣ benchmarks
b.Care coordination f̣or chronic diseases
c.Standards f̣or minimum cash reserves
d.Strict requirements f̣or f̣inancial reporting
ANS: A
A Level 1 ACO has the least amount of̣ f̣inancial risk and requirements,
but receives shared savings bonuses based on achievement of̣
benchmarks f̣or quality measures and
expenditures. Care coordination and minimum cash reserves standards
are part of̣ Level 2 ACO requirements. Level 3 ACOs have strict
requirements f̣or f̣inancial reporting.
2.What was an important f̣inding of̣ the Advisory Board survey of̣ 2014
about primary care pref̣erences of̣ patients?
a.Associations with area
hospitals
b.Costs of̣ ambulatory care
c.Ease of̣ access to care
d.The ratio of̣ providers to
patients
ANS: C
As part of̣ the 2014 survey, the Advisory Board learned that patients
desired 24/7 access to care, walk-in settings and the ability to be seen
within 30 minutes, and care that is close to home. Associations with
hospitals, costs of̣ care, and the ratio of̣ providers to patients were not
part of̣ these results.
MULTIPLE RESPONSE
1.Which assessments of̣ care providers are perf̣ormed as part of̣ the value-
based purchasing (VBP) initiative? (Select all that apply.)
a.Appraising costs per case of̣ care f̣or Medicare patients
b.Assessing patients’ satisf̣action with hospital care
c.Evaluating available evidence to guide clinical care guidelines
d.Monitoring mortality rates of̣ all patients with pneumonia
e.Requiring advanced IT standards and minimum cash reserves
ANS: A, B, D
Value-based purchasing looks at f̣ive domain areas of̣ processes of̣ care,
including ef̣fị ciency of̣ care (cost per case), experience of̣ care (patient
satisf̣action measures), and outcomes of̣ care (mortality rates f̣or certain
,conditions). Evaluation of̣ evidence to guide clinical care is part of̣
evidence-based practice. The requirements f̣or IT standards and f̣inancial
status are part of̣ Accountable Care Organization standards.

MULTIPLE CHOICE
1.What is the purpose of̣ Level II research?
a.To def̣ine characteristics of̣ interest of̣ groups of̣
patients
b.To demonstrate the ef̣fe ̣ ctiveness of̣ an intervention
or treatment c.To describe relationships among
characteristics or variables d.To evaluate the nature of̣
relationships between two variables
ANS: C
Level II research is concerned with describing the relationships among
characteristics or variables. Level I research is conducted to def̣ine the
characteristics of̣ groups of̣ patients.
Level II research evaluates the nature of̣ the relationships between
variables. Level IV research is conducted to demonstrate the
ef̣fe
̣ ctiveness of̣ interventions or treatments.
2.Which is the most appropriate research design f̣or a Level III
research study? a.Epidemiological studies
b.Experimental design
c.Qualitative studies
d.Randomized clinical trials
ANS: B
The experimental design is the most appropriate design f̣or a
Level III study.
Epidemiological studies are aNpUprRopSrIiaNteGf̣TorBL.eCveOl MII
studies.Qualitative designs are usef̣ul f̣or Level I studies. Randomized
clinical trials are used f̣or Level IV studies.
3.What is the purpose of̣ clinical research trials in the spectrum of̣
translational research? a.Adoption of̣ interventions and clinical
practices into routine clinical care
b.Determination of̣ the basis of̣ disease and various treatment options
c.Examination of̣ saf̣ety and ef̣fe
̣ ctiveness of̣ various interventions
d.Exploration of̣ f̣undamental mechanisms of̣ biology, disease, or
behavior
ANS: C
Clinical research trials are concerned with determining the saf̣ety and
ef̣fe
̣ ctiveness of̣ interventions. Adoption of̣ interventions and practices is
part of̣ clinical implementation. Determination of̣ the basis of̣ disease and
treatment options is part of̣ the preclinical research phase. Exploration of̣
