Components to a cognitive assessment include which of the following? (Select all that apply.)

Medicare supplemental insurance, commonly known as Medigap, does not have a Part 8. The options provided seem to be a combination of different parts of Medicare and supplementary insurance.

A. It covers the costs of outpatient services.

Explanation: This statement is generally true, but it is associated with Medicare Part B, which covers outpatient services. Medigap plans can help cover some of the out-of-pocket costs associated with Medicare Part B services.

B. It must be purchased and is a subsidized medical policy.

Explanation: This statement is partially true. Medigap policies must be purchased, but they are not subsidized. Individuals pay private insurance companies for Medigap coverage to help pay for certain costs not covered by Original Medicare (Parts A and B).

C. It covers the costs of speech therapy.

Explanation: This statement is generally true. Medigap plans may cover part or all of the costs associated with Medicare-approved services, including speech therapy.

D. It covers medication costs.

Explanation: This statement is not entirely accurate. Medigap plans do not cover prescription drugs. Coverage for prescription medications is typically provided through Medicare Part D, which is a separate prescription drug coverage plan.

A. Has a history of alcohol abuse
Explanation: Alcohol can contribute to hypothermia as it causes vasodilation, leading to heat loss. It can impair the body's ability to regulate temperature.

B. Bathes three to four times a week
Explanation: While personal hygiene is important, the frequency of bathing alone may not be a direct risk factor for hypothermia. The overall environmental temperature and the individual's ability to regulate their body temperature are more critical considerations.

C. Has a history of diabetes mellitus
Explanation: Diabetes mellitus can increase the risk of hypothermia as it may affect circulation and peripheral nerve function. Impaired sensation and reduced blood flow can contribute to difficulty in maintaining body temperature.

D. Becomes diaphoretic on warm days
Explanation: Excessive sweating (diaphoresis) can contribute to the risk of hypothermia, as it leads to moisture loss from the skin, making it more challenging for the body to maintain a stable temperature.

E. Is prescribed antidepressant
Explanation: While certain medications, including some antidepressants, can affect thermoregulation, the prescription of an antidepressant alone does not necessarily indicate an increased risk of hypothermia. It is essential to consider the specific medication and its potential side effects.

F. Has a history of a cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
Explanation: Individuals with a history of a cerebrovascular accident may have impaired thermoregulation due to damage to the central nervous system. This can increase susceptibility to temperature extremes.
