Answer:
Medical malpractice is sometimes a broad category of several types of actions. In some situations, healthcare fraud is considered to be medical malpractice. Usually these crimes involve actions of medical professionals using medical procedures to fill their pockets. Thousands of medical procedures each year are performed by various healthcare providers that are unnecessary and often not related to the issue the patient has. These unneeded procedures are often performed because insurance companies, Medicare, Medicaid and even private insurance businesses pay the healthcare facility for longer visits and extra care for patients who need treatment that helps prevent surgery complications. A new study published in the Chicago Tribune explained an analysis of records for over 34,000 patients with surgical procedures in 2010 at one of twelve specific hospitals run by Texas Health Resources. Of these, over 1,800 had at least one complication that was preventable. These complications led to a quadrupled length of stay at the facility to up to fourteen days increasing the revenue of the hospital to a little over $30,000 average additional costs.
For some physicians, these unneeded procedures were due to improper or inadequate training. These situations may not be considered fraud. However, if the surgical procedures were due to the fraudulent circumstances the Chicago Tribune discovered, both the healthcare facility and any participating physicians may be guilty of fraud. Criminal charges would be added to civil medical malpractice liable actions.
Explanation:
In order to maintain a stable internal environment, or homeostasis, the body uses negative and positive feedback. In negative feedback, the body works to correct a deviation from a set point, it tries to get back to normal. Examples include body temperature, blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, and thirst sensation. In positive feedback, the body changes from the normal point and amplifies it. Examples include blood clot formation, lactation, contractions during childbirth, and fever.

Answer:
Positive feedback
Explanation:
The homeostasis of the body is generally maintained by the feedback mechanism of the body. Two main types of feedback mechanism are positive feedback and negative feedback mechanism.
Positive feedback mechanism may be defined as in which the final product of the reaction or hormone increase the further secretion of that particular hormone. The positive feedback mechanism can exaggerates the effect of the variation from the normal condition of the body.
Thus, the correct answer is option (e).
