Answer to Question 1

20,000 inches (40,000/2 5 20,000).

Answer to Question 2

An E-visit is a patient encounter conducted over the Internet, without an office visit. The patient enters symptom, history, and HPI information, which is then reviewed by a clinician who communicates via the Internet to ask additional questions and provides a diagnosis, treatment orders, and patient education. E-visits are used only for nonurgent visits and are reimbursed by a growing number of insurance plans.
