Answer to Question 1

A
According to McCloskey (1989), two models for costing out nursing services have been identi-fied. One model is based on total nursing cost per diagnosis-related group, and one model is based on the initiation of nursing services by medical and nursing diagnoses.

Answer to Question 2

C
Productivity measurement is complex for the following reasons: (1) measuring nursing care out-comes is difficult and controversial; (2) the relationships between care processes and nursing outcomes are not well understood; and (3) the most efficient combination of resources for per-forming care processes is not known (Edwardson, 1989).
