question # 9
multiple choice
medical facilities are legally liable for ______.
employee embezzlement of funds
pedophile activity affecting children they serve
lost or stolen social security numbers and insurance information kept in unsecured files
internet scams asking money in the name of the facility

Explanation:

Medical facilities have a legal duty to protect patient information (like social - security numbers and insurance info) under laws such as HIPAA. If they fail to secure these records and they are lost or stolen, they are liable. Employee embezzlement is more of a financial institution or employer - employee financial liability issue. Pedophile activity by staff would be individual criminal liability (though the facility could have some liability in negligent hiring, but the option is about the activity affecting children, and the primary liability for the criminal act is the individual). Internet scams in the facility's name are often external fraud, and the facility isn't directly liable for such scams unless they are complicit. So the most appropriate is the option about lost or stolen patient - related information.

Answer:

lost or stolen social - security numbers and insurance information kept in unsecured files
