A nurse working in a community health center is providing teaching to a client who has alcohol use disorder. Which of the following treatment methods should the nurse include in the teaching?

The correct answer is Choice A because, "The provider is paid a fixed sum for the client on a monthly or yearly basis." A health maintenance organization (HMO) provides a fixed payment to the provider for the client on a monthly or yearly basis.

Choice B is wrong because, "The provider bills the client directly for a predetermined percentage of the cost of services," is not the correct answer. This is an example of a fee-forservice payment structure, not an HMO payment structure.

Choice C is wrong because, "The client is participating in a fee-for-service health care insurance program," is not the correct answer. This is not an HMO payment structure.

Choice D is wrong because, "The client pays the insurer a percentage of the total costs for each service rendered by the provider," is not the correct answer. This is an example of a preferred provider organization payment structure, not an HMO payment structure.

Explanation: An HMO provides a fixed payment to the provider for the client on a

monthly or yearly basis. The provider billing the client directly for a

predetermined percentage of the cost of services, the client participating in a feefor-service health care insurance program, and the client paying the insurer a percentage of the total costs for each service rendered by the provider are not examples of HMO payment structures.

The correct answer is Choice B because, "Determine the health concerns of the employees." Before planning a health fair, it is important to determine the health concerns of the employees in order to tailor the fair to meet their specific needs. Obtaining necessary supplies and equipment (Choice A is wrong because) and making a list of expected outcomes for the health fair (Choice D is wrong because) are important, but not the first priority. Marketing the health fair to the employees (Choice C is wrong because) can be done once the specific health concerns have been identified.

Choice A is wrong because: Obtaining necessary supplies and equipment is important, but not the first priority.

Choice C is wrong because Marketing the health fair to the employees can be done once the specific health concerns have been identified.

Choice D is wrong because: Making a list of expected outcomes for the health fair is important, but not the first priority.
