I'm just hoping the right answer isn't C) receivership. That would be a real Neptune-tune for the hospital, wouldn't it?

Yeah, receivership would definitely be a tough situation for the hospital.

No, it's not receivership. It's actually A) cost shifting.

A) cost shifting is the way to go. It's the only answer that makes sense given the hospital is providing care to both paying and non-paying patients. Easy peasy.

D) Underwriting? Really? That doesn't seem to fit the scenario at all. Is the test writer trying to trick us or something?

I'm not sure about this one. B) Anti selection seems plausible, but I'm not confident enough to select it. Guess I'll have to review my notes on healthcare economics.

I think the correct answer is A) cost shifting. The hospital is providing care to both paying patients and those who can't afford it, which suggests they are distributing the costs across different patient groups.
