Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Health policy is defined as public policies pertaining to health that are the result of an authoritative public decision-making process. Public education funding, appropriation of funding for roads, and selection of members of committees are not part of health care policy. They are under a different funding arm of the government.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C
ACOs work to integrate care, manage chronic conditions, and enhance the use of evidence-based practices. They do not have any involvement with Medicare payments, the management of acute conditions, or hospice care.
