问题 11 . United States hospitals have traditionally relied primarily on revenues from paying patients to offset losses from unreimbursed care. Almost all paying patients now rely on governmental or private health insurance to pay hospital bills. Recently, insurers have been strictly limiting what they pay hospitals for the care of insured patients to amounts at or below actual costs. Which of the following conclusions is best supported by the information above?
选项 A、Although the advance of technology has made expensive medical procedures available to the wealthy, such procedures are out of the reach of low-income patients.
B、If hospitals do not find ways of raising additional income for unreimbursed care, they must either deny some of that care or suffer losses if they give it.
C、Some patients have incomes too high for eligibility for governmental health insurance but are unable to afford private insurance for hospital care.
D、If the hospitals reduce their costs in providing care, insurance companies will maintain the current level of reimbursement , thereby providing more funds for unreimbursed care.
E、Even though philanthropic donations have traditionally provided some support for the hospitals, such donations are at present declining.
答案 B
解析 本题是“归纳”题型。上面段落推理是：医院依赖于付款的病人，而付款的病人依赖保险，但保险公司最近严格把支付限制等于或低于真实费用的水平。(B)可以很好地作为上面推理的结论。一般而言，归纳题应先看带有if的选项，这样我们发现(B)、(D)中有if，但(D)中讨论的方向与上面推理正好相反，所以只有(B)正确。
