PREP-1-72

   

72.   (35377-!-item-!-188;#058&007617)

 

United States hospitals have traditionally relied primarily on revenues from paying patients to offset losses from unreimbursed care.  Almost all paying patients now rely on governmental or private health insurance to pay hospital bills.  Recently, insurers have been strictly limiting what they pay hospitals for the care of insured patients to amounts at or below actual costs.

 

Which of the following conclusions is best supported by the information above?

 

(A) Although the advance of technology has made expensive medical procedures available to the wealthy, such procedures are out of the reach of low-income patients.

(B) If hospitals do not find ways of raising additional income for unreimbursed care, they must either deny some of that care or suffer losses if they give it.

(C) Some patients have incomes too high for eligibility for governmental health insurance but are unable to afford private insurance for hospital care.

(D) If the hospitals reduce their costs in providing care, insurance companies will maintain the current level of reimbursement, thereby providing more funds for unreimbursed care.

(E) Even though philanthropic donations have traditionally provided some support for the hospitals, such donations are at present declining.

 

 选B

医院传统上依赖付费病人的收入来抵消为非付费病人的治疗的开支,现在几乎所有的付费病人都依靠政府或私人保险公司来支付费用,最近,保险公司收紧政策,只替被保病人支付低于或等于实际费用的数额。
B为正确答案,如果医院不寻找一些收入途径来弥补非付费病人的治疗开支,它们要么就要不收一些非付费病人,要么就承受亏损。

还有个问题啊,保险公司不负那么多,剩下的让paying patients补齐不就没事了。。。难道说美国的法律规定保险公司帮病人出钱以后,病人就不用出钱了?也就是说医院不许给有保险病人要钱?


或者说以前收paying patients得钱是正常的,现在收就算是additional了
