Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Carve-out services might be designated for those who need the services the least. A carve-out service (for example, mental health care) is provided within a standard benefit package but delivered exclusively by a designated provider or group. The other definitions do not correctly describe a carve-out service.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Some of the nursing organizations have full-time lobbyists who work in Congress, including the American Nurses Association (ANA). These lobbyists help represent the interests of nurses and society. Politics play a major role in nursing practice and nurses should be encouraged to participate in organizations, even if it is through paying dues, so that their voice can be represented.
