32、icine is finally living up to its p otential. Driven by faster internet connections,咖 quitous(无处不在的)smartphones and changing insurance standards, more health providers are turning to electronic communications to do their jobsand its dramatically changing the delivery of healthcare.B) Doctors are lin

Patients, meanwhile, are usingnew devices to relay their blood pressure, heart rate and other vital signs to their d

Five to IO times a day, Doctors Without Borders relays questions about tough cases from its physicians in Niger, South Sudan and elsewhere to its netwo
35、rk of280 experts around the world, and back again via the internet.C) As a measure of how rapidly telemedicine is spreading, consider: More than 15 million Americ ans received some kind of medical care remotely last year, according to the American Telemedicine Association, a trade group, which expec
36、ts those numbers to grow by 30% this year.D) None of this is to say that telemedicine has found its way into all comers of medicine. A recent survey of 500 tech sa viy(精通技术的)consumers found that 39% hadnt heard oftelemedicine, and of those who havent used it, 42% said they preferred in-person doctor
37、 visits . In a poll of 1,500 family physicians, only 15% had used it in theirpracticesbut 90% said they would i们t were appropriately reimbursed(补偿)E) Whats more, for all the rapid growth, significant questions and challenges remain. Rules defining and regulating telemedicine differ widely from state
38、 to state. Physicians groups are issuing different guidelines about what care they consider appropriate to deliver and in what form.F) Some critics also question whether the quality of care is keeping up with the rapid expansion of telemedicine.And theresthe question of what services physicians shou
39、ld be paid for: Insurance coverage varies from health plan to health plan, and a big federal plan covers only a narrow range of services. Telemedicines future will depend on howand whetherregulators, providers, payers and patients can address these challenges. Heres a closer look at some of these is
40、sues:G) Do patients trade quality for convenience? The fastest-growing services in telemedicine connect consumers4 /with clinicians theyve never met for a phone, video or email visiton-demand, 24/7. Typically, these are fornonemergency issues such as colds, flu, ear-aches and skin rashes, and they c
41、ost around $45, compared with approximately $100 at a doctors office, $160 at an urgent-care clinic or $750 and up at an emergency room.H) Many health plans and employers have rushed to offer the services and promote them as a convenient way for plan members to get medical care without leaving home
42、or work. Nearly three-quarters of large employers will offer virtual doctor visits as a benefit to employees this year, up from 48% last year. Web companies such as Teladoc and American Well are expected to host some 1.2 million such virtual doctor visits this year, up 20% from last year, according
43、to the American Telemedicine Association.I) But critics worry that such services may be sacrificing quality for convenience. Consulting a random doctor patients will never meet, they say, further fragments the health-care system, and even minor issues such as upper respira to叮(上呼吸道的)infections cant
44、be thoroughly evaluated by a doctor who cant listen to your heart or feel your swollen glands. In a recent study, researchers posing as patients with skin problems sought help from 16 telemedicine sites-with unsettling results. In 62 encounters, fewer than one-third disclosed clinicians credentialor
45、 let patients choose; only 32% discussed potential side effects of prescribed medications. Several sites misdiagnosed serious conditions, largely because they failed to ask basic follow-up questions, the researchers said.

46、ime time, says Jack Resneck, the studys lead author.J) The American Telemedicine Association and other organizations have started accreditation(鉴定)programs to identify top-quality telemedicine sites. The American Medical Association this month approved new ethical guidelines for telemedicine, callin
47、g for participating doctors to recognize the limitations of such services and ensure that they have sufficient information to make clinical recommendations.K) Who pays for the services? While employers and health plans have been eager to cover virtual urgent-care visits, insurers have been far less willing to pay for telemedicine when doctors use phone, email or video to consult with existing patients about continuing issues. Its very hard to get paid unless you physically see the patient, says Peter Rasmussen, medical director of distance health at the Cleveland Clinic. Some 32 states h
