Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Lillian Wald recognized the connection between social conditions and health. She was a driving force behind the federal government's development of the Children's Bureau in 1912. Lavinia Dock was a political activist who waged a campaign for legislation to allow nurses to control the nursing profession. Florence Nightingale was the first nurse to exert political pressure on a government. Clara Barton was responsible for organizing relief efforts during the U.S. Civil War.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Managed care has become the dominant paradigm in health care. This model has replaced fee for service by a physician in independent practice or physicians in a group practice, and care in a community health center.
