Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
A hospital-based agency is a home health agency that is not freestanding in the community but is one of many specialty services offered at a hospital setting. It can be for profit or nonprofit depending on the philosophy of the hospital. Voluntary agencies are generally established as not-for-profit entities, although they operate with the same fiscal objectives as for-profit agencies. A proprietary agency is a home health agency that is motivated by a for-profit philosophy. Official agencies are supported by public monies that often come from taxes. The public monies can come from local, state, or federal governments.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Government funding for home healthcare includes Medicare (federal), Medicaid (state), TRICARE (federal funds for military personnel and their dependents), and the Veterans Administration (federal funds for those who are currently serving or have served in the armed services of the United States).
