Financial View
· The financial view is held by those who normally handle
finance on a daily basis, such as auditors, accountants, and
financial analysts.
· Their strength lies in their ability to interpret data and spot
problems before they become too critical.
· One of the key weaknesses is that these individuals are often

Process View
· The process view is normally held by those individuals who
are responsible for the financial systems and typically comprise
the information technology departments.
· Their strength is the ability to take raw data and turn it into
meaningful reports.
· Their weakness lies in not having all information at once.
Since there are normally multiple individuals working in this
department, each individual may have various pieces of the
financial puzzle, but few have the ability to see it all.
Clinical View
· The clinical view is normally held by those who are
responsible for the day to day interactions of the patients and
are usually the licensed healthcare professionals.
· Their strength lies in their desire to ensure the best possible
outcome for the patient and they generally serve as the patients’

(Glossary of Telemedicine and eHealth)

3. · Teleconsultation: Consultation between a provider and
specialist at distance using either store and forward
telemedicine or real time videoconferencing.
· Telehealth and Telemedicine: Telemedicine is the use of
medical information exchanged from one site to another via
electronic communications to improve patients' health status.
Closely associated with telemedicine is the term "telehealth,"
which is often used to encompass a broader definition of remote
healthcare that does not always involve clinical services.
Videoconferencing, transmission of still images, e-health
including patient portals, remote monitoring of vital signs,
continuing medical education and nursing call centers are all
considered part of telemedicine and telehealth. Telemedicine is
not a separate medical specialty. Products and services related
to telemedicine are often part of a larger investment by health
care institutions in either information technology or the delivery
of clinical care. Even in the reimbursement fee structure, there
is usually no distinction made between services provided on site
and those provided through telemedicine and often no separate
coding required for billing of remote services. Telemedicine
encompasses different types of programs and services provided
for the patient. Each component involves different providers
and consumers.
· TeleICU: TeleICU is a collaborative, interprofessional model
focusing on the care of critically ill patients using telehealth
technologies.
· Telemonitoring: The process of using audio, video, and other
telecommunications and electronic information processing
technologies to monitor the health status of a patient from a
distance.
· Telemonitoring: The process of using audio, video, and other
telecommunications and electronic information processing
technologies to monitor the health status of a patient from a
distance.
· Clinical Decision Support System (CCDS): Systems (usually
electronically based and interactive) that provide clinicians,

4. staff, patients, and other individuals with knowledge and
person-specific information, intelligently filtered and presented
at appropriate times, to enhance health and health care.

ml)
· e-Prescribing: The electronic generation, transmission and
filling of a medical prescription, as opposed to traditional paper
and faxed prescriptions. E-prescribing allows for qualified
healthcare personnel to transmit a new prescription or renewal
authorization to a community or mail-order pharmacy.
· Home Health Care and Remote Monitoring Systems: Care
provided to individuals and families in their place of residence
for promoting, maintaining, or restoring health or for
minimizing the effects of disability and illness, including
terminal illness. In the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey
and Medicare claims and enrollment data, home health care
refers to home visits by professionals including nurses,
physicians, social workers, therapists, and home health aides.
Use of remote monitoring and interactive devices allows the
patient to send in vital signs on a regular basis to a provider
without the need for travel.
· Medical/ Nursing Call Center: A centralized office that
answers incoming telephone calls from patients, but may also
respond to letters, faxes, e-mails and similar written
correspondence. Usually staffed by nurses, call centers provide
basic health information and instructions to callers but do not
provide an official diagnosis of conditions or prescribe
medicine. Call centers act as an initial triage point for patients.
· Personal Health Record (PHR): Health record maintained by
the patient to provide a complete and accurate summary of an
individual's medical history accessible online.
· Picture Archiving and Communications System
(PACS): Combination of hardware and software dedicated to
short and long-term storage, retrieval, management, distribution
and presentation of digital medical images.
· Remote Monitoring: Type of ambulatory healthcare where

5. patients use mobile medical devices to perform a routine test
and send the test data to a healthcare professional in real-time.
Remote monitoring includes devices such as glucose meters for
patients with diabetes and heart or blood pressure monitors for
patients receiving cardiac care.
· Telementoring: The use of audio, video, and other
telecommunications and electronic information processing
technologies to provide individual guidance or direction.
· Teledermatology: Specialist use of Telemedicine to provide
dermatological care at a distance. Teledermatology has been
found to be an effective use of store and forward transmission
of digital images and text, though real time consultation via
videoconferencing is also used.
· Telehomecare: The use of remote technologies to provide care
in a home setting. Based upon the clinical needs of the patient,
this may include the use of real-time interactive
videoconferencing systems to conduct homecare visits, or the
use of remote monitoring systems that transmit patient data,
such as blood pressure, weight, or pulse oximetry. Both of these
approaches can use a wide variety of peripheral devices to
collect vital signs or lab data, such as glucose levels. An
education component is often a part of Telehomecare services,
to promote medication compliance and encourage patients to
become more involved with managing their health care needs
· Telepsychiatry: Use of videoconferencing to connect patients
at a distant site to a psychiatric specialist at different location.
See eMental Health
· Telesurgery: Use of Telemedicine through telepresence
systems or videoconferencing to facilitate the success of a
surgical procedure either through consultation or actual
participation in the procedure from a distance.
