Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Corporations have become driving forces in shaping the development of alternative approaches to health care. Businesses, that is, employers, have consistently fought to keep health care costs down and to maximize the value of their dollars spent on health care services. Corporations have taken the most active force in health care delivery in comparison to consumers, health care professionals, and state legislators.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Some practitioners have differing opinions regarding LNCs and nurse attorneys. They may be perceived as either defending the profession or prosecuting peers by testifying against professional colleagues. LNCs are hired by attorneys and insurers to review and interpret medical records and charts, provide objective opinions based on standards of care, and possibly to testify in court as expert witnesses. LNCs are able to provide the link between clinical nursing and the legal system to help keep the practice field safe from dangerous practitioners. In contrast, meticulous practitioners who are wrongfully accused of negligence will be defended. The salary of the position does not address the accusation of the LNCs former friends. The purpose of LNCs is not to help clients obtain revenge if they were harmed by poor care.
