  • Several small community clinics form a joint liability pool, contributing premiums to collectively pay for any medical malpractice claims within the group.Risk Sharing

Cevap

The correct matching aligns each scenario with its corresponding STARR method: ceasing the procedure is Avoidance, installing tools is Reduction, reserving funds is Retention, signing a hold-harmless agreement is Transfer, and pooling resources is Sharing.
Each scenario perfectly illustrates one of the five STARR methods of handling risk. Ceasing an activity is Avoidance; mitigating damage is Reduction; self-funding is Retention; contractual shifting is Transfer; and pooling is Sharing.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the physician's strategy.
The physician eliminates the exposure entirely.
Complete elimination of an exposure defines Risk Avoidance.
2
Analyze the technology firm's strategy.
The firm lowers the frequency and severity of data breaches without eliminating the risk completely.
Taking steps to minimize impact or frequency defines Risk Reduction.
3
Analyze the municipality's strategy.
The municipality sets aside dedicated funds to pay for losses out-of-pocket.
Assuming the financial responsibility for a loss defines Risk Retention.
4
Analyze the general contractor's strategy.
The contractor shifts liability via a contractual hold-harmless agreement.
Moving the legal or financial burden to a third party defines Risk Transfer.
5
Analyze the clinics' strategy.
The clinics distribute the financial impact of claims across a collective group.
Distributing risk among members of a pool defines Risk Sharing.
