1. Which best describes the primaryreason that Americans are concerned about health care?
d d d d d d d d d d d d




a. Politicians are discussing how to improve health care. d d d d d d d




b. Themedia has provided mixed messages about the health care system.
d d d d d d d d d d




c. Our national health care costs keep increasing.
d d d d d d




d. Thenew health care system offers free services to Americans.
d d d d d d d d d




ANSWER: C d




The primary reason for the focus on health care is the constantly increasing costs, which c annot be
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




sustained. The costs of caringfor thesick accounted for themajorityof escalatin g health care dollars,
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




which increased from 5.7% of the gross domestic product in 1965 to 17.8% in 2015.
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




Politicians and the media both influence Americans‘ perceptions about heal th care; however, theyare
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




not the primaryreason why Americans are concerned. The new h ealth caresystem will change the
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




health care access and availability, but will not necessaril y be offering any free services to Americans.

c. Nurses are the largest segment of health care providers. d d d d d d d d




d. Nurses are the only group that is employed both inside and outside of hospitals.d d d d d d d d d d d d d




ANSWER: C d




As the largest segment of health care providers, nurses are informed about the current healt h care
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




system and all the problems that result from people not seeking care until they are d esperately ill.
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




Nurses, as the American Nurses Association (ANA) emphasize, usually belie ve that health careis a
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




right, not a privilege. Therefore, nurses, whose work is central to o ur current health care delivery
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




system, can also be instrumental in working politically to cr eate a health care delivery system that will
d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d




meet health needs. While nurses are in several current TV series and are employed both inside and
