Answer:

A)  CE(X) > CE(Y) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Solution:

Correct Answer is A) CE(X) > CE(Y)

Because:

1. First of all, we are given that Pierce has a concave utility of wealth function u(x) which means Pierce is a kind of person who does not prefer taking risk.

2. Secondly, we are given that he prefers prospect X to Prospect Y.

3. Thirdly, Pierce will always make sure that Certainty Equivalent should be higher than others as Pierce does not want to take risks.

4. Lastly, he prefers X to Y so, he will make sure CE(X) must be greater than CE(Y) .

Hence,

A)  CE(X) > CE(Y) is the correct answer.

What is fraud and how does it impact health care costs?
valentinak56 [21]

The National Health Care Anti-Fraud Association (NHCAA) estimates that the financial losses due to health care fraud are in the tens of billions of dollars each year.

Whether you have employer-sponsored health insurance or you purchase your own insurance policy, health care fraud inevitably translates into higher premiums and out-of-pocket expenses for consumers, as well as reduced benefits or coverage. For employers-private and government alike-health care fraud increases the cost of providing insurance benefits to employees and, in turn, increases the overall cost of doing business. For many Americans, the increased expense resulting from fraud could mean the difference between making health insurance a reality or not.

However, financial losses caused by health care fraud are only part of the story. Health care fraud has a human face too. Individual victims of health care fraud are sadly easy to find. These are people who are exploited and subjected to unnecessary or unsafe medical procedures. Or whose medical records are compromised or whose legitimate insurance information is used to submit falsified claims.

<span>Don't be fooled into thinking that health care fraud is a victimless crime. There is no doubt that health care fraud can have devastating effects.</span>
