Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
All these changes resulted in conflicts among providers, patients, employers, and the insurance plans, particularly when services deemed necessary by the consumer and provider were denied insurance coverage. Everyone blamed everyone else. This did not allow for costs to be controlled, impact the demand for health care, or cause employers to discontinue their insurance plans for employees.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Nurses know how to communicate, collaborate, negotiate, and serve as leaders who can make themselves heard. However, the various nursing subgroups do not agree on public policies.
