NSG 6002 Health Policy Final Exam

Practice Questions and Answers


Q: Hospitals and other care providers use the patient engagement framework to gradually expand the

tools and methods they use to improve quality of care delivery as well as quality of health. What do I

really mean by that? - ANSWER✔✔-A: The patient engagement framework is the pathway- or roadmap-

toward getting patients fully integrating into his or her own health care.


Q: Why should providers care about meaningful use? - ANSWER✔✔-A: Meaningful rules allow hospitals

and clinicians to receive reimbursement for HIT investments initially and to avoid penalties in the future

when that technology is used in ways that enhance the experience and quality of care. It's also one more

way for us to help push our healthcare system in the direction of being a value based system.


Q: How do we accomplish keeping providers and patients informed? (the Inform Me level of the Patient

Engagement Framework) - ANSWER✔✔-A: Most healthcare systems address the "Inform Me" need

through their patient and marketing portals-- Including providing health information through the

hospital's website


Q: What's wrong with patient's accessing information from general websites like WebMD? -

ANSWER✔✔-A: lack of validated, trustworthy information as well as pharmaceutical bias and medical

device ads that are intended to influence the consumer. Providing health information through the

hospital's (or clinic's; where ever) website adds a degree of authenticity that leads patients to trust the

information and feel more comfortable sharing what they've learned with their trusted clinicians.

Q: What did we used to use before Health Information Technology to help inform patients? -

ANSWER✔✔-A: Self-care handbooks


Q: What are e-tools? - ANSWER✔✔-A: When I say e-tools I'm referring to any electronically-delivered

method that offers convenient features for the patient and allows them to do more for themselves (e.g.

symptom checkers, food/fitness trackers, requesting Rx refills online)


Q: How does patient engagement help providers? - ANSWER✔✔-A: Patient reminders can help patients

keep their upcoming appointments (reducing "no show" rates for providers) and assist them in

remembering preventive cancer screenings or flu shots, thus improving scores on quality measures for

providers. And guess what happens when providers meet quality measures? Reimbursement!


Q: What are the benefits of patient empowerment? - ANSWER✔✔-A: Improved communication between

patient, provider, & care team


Q: What's the point of the Patient Engagement Framework? - ANSWER✔✔-A: The point is the 5 stages of

the Patient Engagement framework can positively effect change and influence the achievement of better

care, better health, and lower cost


Q: What is behavioral economics? - ANSWER✔✔-A: Behavioral economics incorporates economic,

cognitive, and social psychology disciplines to determine how individuals and institutions make

economic decisions. Remember that humans are innately impulsive and irrational, and exhibit

inconsistent patterns in decision making based on emotions, social environment, and immediate

circumstance.


Q: How is behavioral economics different from traditional economics? - ANSWER✔✔-A: traditional

economics assumes that humans are rational
