Chapter 3. Role Development: A Theoretical
Perspective
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Medical care provided by primary care providers (PCMD, PCNP) as part of the patient-
centered medical home (PCMH) model encompasses the full spectrum of primary care
including standards of accessibility, continuity, comprehensiveness, integrated care, and
interprofessional care. This model was first defined for what population group?
a. Geriatrics
b. Gynecology
c. Pediatrics
d. Mental health
ANS: C
The patient-centered medical home (PCMH) model was first developed for the
pediatric medical community for development of children with complex medical
conditions.
2. Which of the following is reducing the restrictions of access to consultations for patients
with complex or high-risk conditions, effectively reducing the burden of primary care
practices?
a. PCMH Model
b. CONNECT Project
c. Project ECHO
d. PCT-LEAP Project
ANS: C
, Technical innovations such as Project ECHO and eConsults are increasing access and
advancing care by easing the burden of connecting primary care practices and patients
with consultants through the use of technology. This allows for faster access to
consultants for patients with complex or high-risk medical conditions.
3. A medical visit that comprises several patients in a group with similar conditions where
patients discuss their health status, therapeutic regimes, behavioral modifications, and
how to handle them is called:
a. Project ECHO
b. Convenient care clinics
c. Shared medical appointments
d. Group therapy
ANS: C
Shared medical appointments are a reimbursable type of visit that may include a
multidisciplinary team where patients with similar conditions discuss their health
status, therapeutic regimes, behavioral modifications, and how to handle them in a
group setting.
4. According to the American Association of Nurse Practitioners: 2017 NP Fact Sheet, NPs
have been in practice an average of how many years?
a. 9 years
b. 14 years
c. 7 years
d. 11 years
ANS: D
In 2017, the average NP has been in practice for 11 years.
