Answer to Question 1

2
1. Incorrect. Although quality control is important, it does not have any bearing on the rise of popularity of managed care.
2. Correct. Health care is one of the fastest growing sectors of the U.S. economy. Managed care was developed as a direct result of escalating health care costs.
3. Incorrect. Managed care tends to have a gatekeeper effect, which actually may limit the access to physicians, especially specialists.
4. Incorrect. Although early discharges were originally part of the managed care plan to re-duce hospital expenditures, it has created a need for additional care in the home.

C
