Answer to Question 1

2
Explanation: 1. Primary care is the focus of integrated health care systems. The goal is to keep the clients
healthy, and to prevent hospital stays, visits to specialists, and home health care. Hospital care,
specialty care, and home care are not the focus of integrated health care.

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation: 1. DRGs are a prospective system of payment to providers and organizations for a set amount for
a specific condition stipulated in advance. Health care providers have responded to this system
by reducing hospital stays. All other answers are incorrect definitions for DRG.
