Which 3 statements about future health care trends in the United States are true? Outpatient care will continue to be on average at least 50% or more of hospital revenue. Prescriptions as a percent of health care expenditure in the United States will be greater than expenditures for physician and clinical services based on current trends. National debt, gross domestic product (GDP), and economic indicators, such as interest rates and taxation, will have an impact on health care planning and operations. Universal coverage and single payer coverage are the same. Private health care insurance is now and for the next 5–10 years will be the largest source of health care coverage in the United States. Inflation in wages and supplies will not be a factor in planning for costs.
