Answer to Question 1

Forty-four percent of those who start drinking at the age of 14 or younger will develop alcoholism.

Answer to Question 2

When Medicare became effective in 1966, it revolutionized home care by changing it to a medical rather than nursing model of practice, defining and limiting services it would reimburse, and changing the payment source and even changing the reason home care was provided.
