As a patient, your doctor must have you sign a HIPAA consent and release form to share your ePHI and PHI with insurance providers who pay your medical bills. This is a part of HIPAA privacy rule.
HIPAA privacy rules are there to protect the medical records of an individual and also other personal information shared only to the doctors and health professionals.
Answer:
O the perceived demand and marginal revenue curves for each firm will shift to the left.
Explanation:
Monopolistically competitive industry is an industry that has many firms that produce similar but differentiated products. The products are differentiated through branding.
As more firms enter the industry, both the perceived demand and marginal revenue curves for each firm industry will shift to the left. This is because, new firms have made available more substitutes to existing products making the demand for existing products to reduce. As the demand reduces, demand curve shift to the left, and this also makes marginal revenue to shift to the left.

Answer:
Explanation:
a. QXd = 1,200 – 3PX – 0.1PZ
Pz = $300 and Px = $140, plugging the values, we get,
Qx = 1200 – 3*140 – 0.1*300.
Qx = 750 units.
Elasticity of demand = \deltaQx/\deltaPx * Px/Qx.
\deltaQx/\deltaPx = -3.
E = -3 * 140/750.
E = -0.56
The elasticity of demand is INELASTIC because the absolute value of elasticity is less than one. If the firm charges a price below $140it might lose out in revenue because the percentage change in demand is less than the price.
b. Px = $240, substituting this into the equation we get
Qx = 1200 – 3*240 – 0.1*300
Qx = 450 units.
E = -3 * 240/450.
E = -1.6
The demand is elastic because the absolute value is less than one. If the firm charges a price above $240 it might lose out on its revenue because the percent change in demand is more than the price.
c. Cross price elasticity of demand Es = \deltaQx/\deltaPz * Pz/Qx.
\deltaQx/\deltaPz = -0.1
Es = -0.1 * 300/750.
Es = -0.04
The goods are complements of each other. As the price of one increases, the demand for other would fall, and vice-versa is true.
Answer:
Explanation:
The direct cost is the cost that is directly related to production. The example is direct material cost, direct labor cost, etc whereas the indirect cost is the cost that is not directly related to the production. It is also known as overhead cost only records all indirect cost i.e depreciation on equipment of factory, property taxes, etc
Based on this, the classification is as follows
1 The wages of pediatric nurses / The pediatric department = Direct cost (D)
2 Prescription drugs / A particular patient = Direct cost (D)
3 Heating the hospital / The pediatric patient = Indirect cost (D)
4 The salary of the head of pediatrics / The pediatric patient = Direct cost (D)
5 The salary of the head of pediatrics / The particular pediatric patient = Indirect cost (D)
6 Hospital chaplain's salary / A particular patient = Indirect cost (D)
7 Lab tests by outside contractor / A particular patient = Direct cost (D)
8 Lab tests by outside contractor / A particular department = Direct cost (D)
