Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

B
c, d, e, g, h
A never event means that if it should never happen, we (the insurer) will never pay. Insurers will no longer pay for never events. A pressure ulcer will be covered if it was not acquired in the hospital facility. A minor medication error that causes no harm to the patient will not cause an insurer to withhold payment.
