Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
Telehealth allows experts to be accessed remotely to diagnose and treat illness, provide preventive health care, or provide medical consultation. It initially was used to provide care to clients in rural areas but is now also used in urban areas. At first it originated at health facilities, but now Telehealth often originates from the client's home. The company ISelectMD is one example: the employer's health insurance charges a minimal additional health premium fee monthly, and then each employee has 24/7 access to a physician via Telemedicine by signing onto a website and entering his symptoms and paying a visit fee. The physician on call reviews client's medical history and current symptoms, makes a diagnosis, and e-mails in a prescription, if needed. A follow-up call is made 2 days later to determine whether the health issue was resolved. Obviously, only minor conditions such as urinary tract infections or respiratory illness can be treated in this remote technology fashion.
