ESSAYBID ANSWER

ANS: D
As a reward for conservative medical practices, health care providers may receive a specified amount of money or a percentage of the agreed reimbursement if services are delivered below the limit set by the third-party payer. Thus, it is the responsibility of the provider to use this conservative practice. Patient care should not be compromised as providers practice conservatively.
