Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, D
The Triple Aim for Health Care is a broad philosophy designed to address the most abstract level of healthcare services in the United States. It includes better care for individuals, better health for populations, and reduction of per capita costs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Early home health services originated in the United States in the 1800s and were based on the district nursing model developed in England. Often, initial programs evolved into visiting nurse associations. Home health services increased and changed considerably after Medicare was enacted in 1965.
