A nurse is assisting with admitting a client who reports they are currently unemployed.
Which of the following factors of the social determinants of health (SDOH) is challenging for the client?

Choice A rationale:

Explaining that the hospital follows a preferred provider organization structure does not help the patient obtain health insurance.

Choice B rationale:

Reviewing the benefits of obtaining health insurance through a health maintenance organization does not help the patient obtain health insurance.

Choice C rationale:

Asking social services to help the patient use the state health care exchange to shop for health insurance coverage is the best action as it directly addresses the patient’s need.

Choice D rationale:

Suggesting the patient consider contacting the state to enroll in Medicaid may not be appropriate if the patient does not meet the eligibility criteria for Medicaid.

Choice A rationale:

Arranging for him to receive the sacrament of the sick may not align with the beliefs of a Seventh-Day Adventist.

Choice B rationale:

Seventh-Day Adventists observe the Sabbath from Friday evening to Saturday evening, so not scheduling diagnostic tests for Saturday respects this belief.

Choice C rationale:

Assigning same-gender caregivers may not be a specific requirement for Seventh-Day Adventists.

Choice D rationale:

Offering him a kosher dietary menu may not align with the dietary practices of a Seventh-Day Adventist, who typically follow a vegetarian diet.
