THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT: Payments made on behalf of one person (party) to a second person (party) by a third person (party) for benefits received by the first person (party). Eliminating the person (party) language, these sorts of payments are a standard method of buying health care. Insurance companies and the government pay doctors for the medical care received by patients. Problems arise because the party with the check book (insurance companies and government) aren't getting any of the benefits, while the party getting the benefits (patients) don't have to be concerned about payment. As such, third-party payments give patients an incentive to buy too much health care.

|
Page: 12 of 20
|
The shifts in the aggregate supply curves are usually small, steady, and readily expected.- The supply-side of the aggregate market is usually the perfect picture of stability.
- Most of economy's instability result from instability on the demand side of the aggregate market.
- Shifts of the aggregate supply curve are due to ceteris paribus determinants.
- The supply determinants are things, other than the price level, that affect aggregate supply.
Both, short-run aggregate supply and long-run aggregate supply curves, can increase or decrease.In both, long run and shot run: - An increase shifts the aggregate supply curve to right.
- It means that producers are willing and able to offer more real production for sale at any and all price levels.
- A decrease shifts the aggregate supply curve to left.
- It means that producers are willing and able to offer less real production for sale at any and all price levels.

NO-RESERVE BANKING A (hypothetical) method of banking in which banks keep 0 percent of their deposits in the form of bank reserves, meaning that ALL deposits are used for interest-paying loans. No-reserve banking is one of two theoretical alternatives designed to help illustrate a contrast to the fractional-reserve banking actually practiced by modern banks. The other alternative is full-reserve banking. With the no-reserve approach a bank operates as financial intermediary or broker, matching up borrowers and lenders.
