Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The economics of health care and diminishing numbers of health care providers led to legislative passage of the PPAC. This legislation is designed to make health care accessibility a reality for all. In 2012, the Supreme Court issued a historic decision to uphold this legislation. With this legislation comes a mandate for providing high-quality health care to a greater number of people at a lower cost, all at a time when there is a growing shortage of nurses and physicians. The shortage is expected to increase dramatically over the next decade.
