Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Block grants enabled financial responsibility to shift from the federal level to the state level, thereby reducing expenditures. Block grants gave additional monies to state and local areas to improve access to care. Block grants have not caused a shift in care from hospital-based to com-munity-based nursing care. Block grants have not guaranteed program continuation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Politics is the art of influencing others to accept a specific course of action. Therefore political activities are used to arrive at a course of action (the policy). Policy is a settled course of action to be followed by a government or institution to obtain a desired end. Law is a system of privileges and processes by which people solve problems based on a set of established rules. Health policy is a set course of action to obtain a desired health outcome for an individual, family, group, community, or society.
