Telehealth provides increased access to health care by the use of a computer monitor and tele-phone line. It is useful for monitoring clients with chronic disease, but is not a substitute for health care. Telehealth may or may not be accompanied by home care nursing.
Answer to Question 2
ANS: A
The electronic medical record facilitates interprofessional care in chronic disease management and coordination of referrals; 24-hour availability of records with downloaded laboratory results and up-to-date assessments; incorporation of protocol reminders for prevention, screening, and management of chronic disease; improvement of quality measurement and monitoring; and in-creased client safety and decline in medication errors. There is no data to support that the agency will have improved client compliance or cost savings. Electronic medical records are not a re-quirement by JCAHO.
