Answer to Question 1

1

Feedback
1 Small businesses are unlikely to offer insurance plans to their employees because of high cost.
2 An elderly woman would be insured through Medicare.
3 Large businesses are able to offer insurance plans to employees.
4 An infant whose mother is on welfare can also be enrolled in Medicaid.

Answer to Question 2

1,4,5
Rationale: The following address USH's mission in terms of survivability: planning for one hospital in each regional area to maintain communications with USH headquarters; communicating directly with the Department of Homeland Security when needed; and maintaining information system functionality for the emergency, operating room, lab, and pharmacy units. System backup and emergency power generators are important general security issues but do not specifically address survivability during a catastrophic event.
