Read the following passage carefully:
Under the 2026 National Emergency Medical Logistics Directive, secondary and tertiary hospitals are eligible for national operational subsidies only if they maintain at least 20 percent reserved bed capacity for regional epidemic surges. To retain eligibility, all subsidized facilities are required to submit quarterly audit reports to the central health ministry. However, the directive provides a specific exemption: hospitals located in high-density urban districts are exempt from maintaining the 20 percent reserved bed capacity provided they maintain a binding contractual agreement with a certified tele-ICU service to manage spillover patients during emergencies. Furthermore, any facility failing to submit two consecutive quarterly audit reports forfeits all subsidy allocations for the subsequent fiscal year.
Based strictly on the passage above, which of the following conclusions must logically follow regarding a hospital receiving a national operational subsidy under the directive?
- An urban hospital that receives the subsidy while holding less than 20 percent reserved surge capacity has a binding contract with a certified tele-ICU service.Cevap
- BSubsidized hospitals located in rural areas receive higher financial allocations because they cannot access tele-ICU services.
- CEvery hospital operating in a high-density urban district relies primarily on tele-ICU services for its daily intensive care operations.
- DA hospital that forfeits its subsidy for the subsequent fiscal year failed to maintain its 20 percent reserved surge capacity for two consecutive quarters.
