D.) Encounter of care

Answer 1

This is the primary cost object:

A.) Specific DRG

Step-by-step explanation:

The firms that handle healthcare are focused on the specific DRG required by the person and not necessarily the number of time healthcare was needed or how many repeated episodes it will involve.

This is because they are concerned with the cost.

There is a world's difference between the regular cost of a regular checkup and a serious ailment but booth are factored in pretty much the same by the healthcare system.
