Reimbursement is a very important issue in home health care. Because public sources (predominately Medicare) currently pay more than 70 of home health care costs, to ensure payment for services home health nurses should
 
  1. Check a client's Medicare eligibility on a daily basis.
  2. Contact the referring physician to ensure that all services have been ordered.
  3. Contact sources for referral only when absolutely necessary.
  4. Document all assessment data and care provided on required forms.

Question 2

Yolanda Peters works as an RN in a respiratory unit of a large hospital but is seeking a change. Most of her clients have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, lung cancer,
 
  and a variety of communicable diseases such as pneumonia and tuberculosis. Yolanda wants a change to focus more on prevention and health promotion, and a career counselor suggested that her background and interests would prepare her for work in:
  1. Ambulatory oncology or ambulatory surgery.
  2. Occupational health or public health.
  3. Parish health or correctional health.
  4. School health or rural health.
