3. Consider the following statements:

Statement A. When physicians discuss end-of-life with cancer patients, their health-
care costs are much higher in the last week of life.

Statement B. Many dying persons never get referred to hospice care.


1. Both statements A and B are true.



2. Both statements A and B are false.



3. Statement A is true and statement B is false.



4. Statement A is false and statement B is true.




ANS: 4

Rationale:

According to Zhang et al. (2009), costs are much lower when physicians discuss end-of-
life care with their patients. Yet many dying persons are never referred to hospice. More
than a third of those referred only spend seven days enrolled, although many would
benefit greatly from aspects of care management lasting longer (Jennings, Ryndes,
D’Onofrio, & Baily, 2010).
