I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this before, but I can’t recall if all three statements are true or just some of them.

I’m not entirely sure about the concurrent part. Did we cover if most peer reviews are done at the same time or not?

Okay, let's see. The first statement says peer review can be for single episodes or entire programs, the second says most peer review is concurrent, and the third says peer review is required for Medicare/Medicaid services. I think I know the right answer, but I'll double-check the options to be sure.

Ah, the joys of peer review. I'm going to go with D on this one. The concurrent part sounds about right, and the HCQIP requirement makes sense. Now, where's the coffee machine in this place?

I think D is the correct choice. Peer review is mostly done concurrently and is required for services under HCQIP.

Option C makes the most sense to me. Peer review can be applied to individual episodes or entire programs, and Medicare/Medicaid requires it for their plans. The concurrent part seems a bit questionable though.
