Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
HMO providers pay at contracted rates. Fee-for-service means payment is provided at time of service. FQHC has federal designation that allows cost-based reimbursement per encounter. Third-party reimbursement involves client billing to a public program or commercial/private in-surance.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Nursing centers provide unique opportunities to improve the health status of individuals, families, and communities through direct access to nursing and nursing models of care. A nursing center deemphasizes illness-oriented care, is reimbursed for services, and uses nurses to diagnose and treat.
