    B. The patient telepHones for an appointment
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "the patient telephones for an appointment." This is because the question is asking about when the "encounters" begin, and the act of the patient calling to schedule an appointment is the first interaction they have with the medical facility. The other options mentioned in the question (patient arriving, encounter completed, patient in the exam room) are all part of the encounter process, but they happen after the initial phone call.

    Correct Answer
    C. Office location, size, and layout
    Explanation
    Patients often rely on surrogates to assess the quality of healthcare services since most of these services are intangible. Office location, size, and layout serve as important surrogates for patients to evaluate the healthcare facility. The location of the office can indicate accessibility and convenience for the patient. The size and layout of the office can provide insights into the level of comfort and organization within the facility. Patients may consider these factors when choosing a healthcare facility as they indirectly reflect the quality of care they can expect to receive.

    Explanation
    Patients naturally have a desire to like their physicians, as it is human nature to seek a positive rapport with the person responsible for their healthcare. To fulfill this need, physicians should reveal only enough personal information for patients to relate to them. By sharing some relatable experiences, physicians can establish a connection with their patients without crossing professional boundaries or divulging too much private information. This approach maintains a professional relationship while still fostering a sense of trust and understanding between the physician and patient.

    • D.

      One-touch capture system

    Correct Answer
    C. One-write or pegboard system
    Explanation
    A one-write or pegboard system is a useful method of accounting for small practices that captures information at the time the transaction takes place. This system involves using special forms that have a carbon backing, allowing the information to be recorded on multiple sheets simultaneously. This ensures that the transaction details are accurately captured and can be easily referenced later. The term "one-write" refers to the ability to record information once and have it automatically transferred to other necessary documents, reducing the chances of errors or discrepancies. The pegboard system utilizes pegs or hooks to hold the forms in place, making it easier to keep track of transactions.

This practice helps to maintain accuracy and continuity in patient billing processes, ultimately ensuring the smooth operation of the system.

The billing cycle ensures that patients are informed about their financial obligations and allows the healthcare office to efficiently manage their billing and payment processes.

  • 13. 

    Patients who have either inadequate insurance or no insurance at all are referred to as

      Deadbeats

    • B.

      Nonpayers

    • C.

      Self-pay patients

    • D.

      Red-flaggers

    Correct Answer
    C. Self-pay patients
    Explanation
    The term "self-pay patients" refers to individuals who do not have insurance coverage or have inadequate insurance to cover their medical expenses. These patients are responsible for paying for their healthcare services out of their own pocket. The term "deadbeats" typically refers to someone who intentionally avoids paying their debts, which is not a suitable term for patients without insurance. "Nonpayers" could be a general term for individuals who do not pay for their medical bills, but it does not specifically indicate their insurance status. "Red-flaggers" is not a commonly used term in the context of healthcare and does not relate to patients without insurance.

  • 14. 

    If a patient has no insurance listed, the health insurance professional should

    • A.

      Refuse to treat the patient

    • B.

      Ask the patient to pay up front

    • C.

      Offer the patient some payment options

    • D.

      Inquire as to why no insurance is listed

    Correct Answer
    D. Inquire as to why no insurance is listed
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to inquire as to why no insurance is listed. This is the most appropriate action for a health insurance professional to take when encountering a patient with no insurance listed. By asking the patient why they do not have insurance, the professional can gather important information about the patient's situation and potentially offer assistance or alternative options for coverage. Refusing to treat the patient or asking for upfront payment may not be ethical or practical, while offering payment options may not address the underlying issue of the patient's lack of insurance.

This means that if a consumer enters into a credit agreement, they have the option to spread their payments over a period of more than four installments.

By allowing installment plans of more than four payments, it gives consumers flexibility in managing their finances and repaying their debts.

    The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is a federal law that regulates the behavior of third-party debt collectors. It specifically addresses and prohibits abusive methods used by these collectors when attempting to collect debts from consumers. The FDCPA sets guidelines for how collectors can communicate with debtors, what actions they can take, and what information they can disclose.

    In a small claims lawsuit, the plaintiff is the party who initiates the legal action by filing a complaint against the defendant.

    • D.

      Making the judgment

    Correct Answer
    C. Being sued
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "being sued." In a legal case, the defendant refers to the party against whom a lawsuit or legal action is brought. They are the person or entity that is being accused or held responsible for a wrongdoing. The defendant's role is to defend themselves against the claims made by the plaintiff or the party that initiated the lawsuit. Therefore, the defendant is the party that is being sued, not the one suing someone or making the argument in court.

      Preventive illnesses

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    A. Illnesses and injuries

By narrowing down the coverage to illnesses and injuries, health insurance aims to provide financial protection and support for individuals in times of medical need. It does not typically cover automobile accidents, preventive illnesses, or preexisting conditions, as these may fall under different types of insurance or may require specific coverage options.

    • C.

      Blue cross

    • D.

Blue Cross and health maintenance are not specific healthcare programs for indigent and low-income individuals, making them incorrect options.

    Correct Answer
    A. Managed care
    Explanation
    Managed care is a relatively new concept of healthcare structure that emerged in the late twentieth century. It refers to a system where healthcare providers, such as doctors and hospitals, are organized into networks and are responsible for managing and coordinating the care of patients. This approach aims to control costs, improve quality of care, and promote preventive measures. Managed care often involves health insurance plans that require patients to seek care from within the network of providers and obtain prior authorization for certain services.

    • D.

      Guaranteed insurance pool

    Correct Answer
    A. Group plan
    Explanation
    Many employed individuals obtain healthcare coverage through a group plan. This is because group plans are typically provided by employers as part of their employee benefits package. These plans cover a group of individuals, such as employees of a company, and often offer more affordable premiums and better coverage compared to individual policies. Group plans also provide a wider network of healthcare providers and may include additional benefits like dental and vision coverage. Therefore, it is common for employed individuals to opt for healthcare coverage through a group plan.

    Cost sharing refers to the situation where patients are required to pay a certain portion of healthcare costs, such as deductibles and copayments. This means that individuals are responsible for sharing the financial burden of their healthcare expenses with the insurance provider. Cost sharing helps to distribute the costs more equitably between the insurer and the insured, ensuring that individuals have some financial responsibility for their healthcare services. It is a common practice in many healthcare systems to encourage individuals to be more conscious of their healthcare utilization and to help control rising healthcare costs.

    Explanation
    Actuaries use statistics to predict anticipated healthcare costs, which in turn helps them establish premiums. By analyzing data and trends, actuaries can estimate the potential costs of providing healthcare services to individuals or groups. This information is crucial for insurance companies to determine the appropriate premiums to charge their policyholders. Actuaries take into account various factors such as age, gender, medical history, and other risk assessment clusters to calculate premiums that are fair and reflect the expected healthcare costs for each insured individual.

    An indemnity insurance plan is a type of fee-for-service healthcare plan where the policyholder has the freedom to choose their healthcare providers and services. This type of plan typically reimburses the policyholder for a percentage of the medical expenses incurred, up to a certain limit. Unlike managed care plans, which often have restrictions on providers and require pre-authorization for certain services, indemnity insurance offers more flexibility and choice to the policyholder. Therefore, it is an appropriate term to describe fee-for-service healthcare plans.

    A shabby reception room at a healthcare office can suggest shabby care to a new patient

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    A. True
    Explanation

If the room is poorly maintained or in disrepair, it may give the impression that the overall care provided by the facility is also subpar. Patients may associate the lack of attention to the physical environment with a lack of attention to their medical needs. Therefore, a shabby reception room can indeed suggest shabby care to a new patient.
