Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

B
In a capitated environment, a single fee is paid for all services provided. To be financially viable under this reimbursement model, organizations would be interested in decreasing the volume of services used and increasing the volume of patients. High-technology treatments and second opi-nions may increase the number of services used.
