To better the rural community it serves, XYZ Hospital has instituted a remote patient monitoring system for patients with pacemakers. Patients use a smart phone app to download the information collected by the pacemaker that is then sent to their physicians on a more frequent basis than a regularly scheduled doctor’s appointment. Because the data is collected more frequently, the doctor’s can identify cardiac issues before they become a real problem requiring the patient to be admitted. Benefits to telehealth include: _____

A. Access to patient information
B. Reducing hospitalization
C. Providing information to healthcare providers
D. Population health

Answer:

Explanation:

Late response as the poster has already posted the right answer in comment: B. Reducing hospitalization.

Both A. Health information literature and C. Providing information to healthcare providers are possible answers. But it specifically states that "the doctor’s can identify cardiac issues before they become a real problem requiring the patient to be admitted." So B is the right answer.
