,Chapter |1. |Child |Health |Assessment: |An |Overview
MULTIPLE |CHOICE
1. |A |nurse |is |reviewing |changes |in |healthcare |delivery |and |funding |for |pediatric |populations.
Which |current |trend |in |the |pediatric |setting |should |the |nurse |expect |to |find?
a. |Increased |hospitalization |of |children
b. |Decreased |number |of |uninsured |children
c. |An |increase |in |ambulatory |care
d. |Decreased |use |of |managed |care
ANSWER: |C
One |effect |of |managed |care |is |that |pediatric |healthcare |delivery |has |shifted |dramatically |from |the
acute |care |setting |to |the |ambulatory |setting. |The |number |of |hospital |beds |being |used |has
decreased |as |more |care |is |provided |in |outpatient |and |home |settings. |The |number |of |uninsured
children |in |the |United |States |continues |to |grow. |One |of |the |biggest |changes |in |healthcare |has
been |the |growth |of |managed |care.

program |that |assists |with |supplemental |food |supplies. |Which |program |should |the |nurse |refer |this
family |to?

WIC |is |a |federal |program |that |provides |supplemental |food |supplies |to |low-income |women |who
are |pregnant |or |breast-feeding |and |to |their |children |until |the |age |of |5 |years. |Medicaid |and |the
Medicaid |Early |and |Periodic |Screening, |Diagnostic, |and |Treatment |(EPSDT) |program |provides
for |well-child |examinations |and |related |treatment |of |medical |problems. |Children |in |the |WIC
program |are |often |referred |for |immunizations, |but |that |is |not |the |primary |focus |of |the |program.
Public |Law |99-457 |provides |financial |incentives |to |states |to |establish |comprehensive |early
intervention |services |for |infants |and |toddlers |with, |or |at |risk |for, |developmental |disabilities.
Medicare |is |the |program |for |Senior |Citizens.

may |be |consulted |to |verify |the |status |of |the |emancipated |minor |for |consent |purposes. |Most |states
