I'm a little unsure about this one. I know the basics of managed care, but I'm not totally confident I can identify all the major forms. I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

Okay, I remember learning about the different managed care models in class. I think the key is that they all involve some form of cost control and utilization management, so D seems like the best answer.

Hmm, let me think about this. I know HMOs and PPOs are types of managed care, but I'm not sure if fee-for-service with utilization review counts. I'll have to carefully consider the options.
