How Telemedicine Is Transforming Healthcare
A) After years of big promises，telemedicine is finally living up to its potential.Driven by faster internet connections，ubiquitous (无处不在的)smartphoncs and changing insurance standards，more healthproviders are turning to electronic communications to do their jobs—and it's dramatically changing thedelivery of healthcare.
B)Doctors are linking up with patients by phone，email and webcam(网络摄像头).They're also
consulting with each other electronically—sometimes to make split-second decisions on heart attack sand strokes.P atients，meanwhile，are using new devices to relay their blood pressure，heart rate and other vital signs to their doctors so they can manage chronic conditions at home. Tele medicine alsoallows for better care in places where medical expertise is hard to come by. Five to 10 times a day,Doctors Without Borders relays questions about tough cases from its physicians in Niger，South Sudanand elsewhere to its network of 280 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 Americans received some kind of medical care remotely last year，according to the American Telemedicine Association，a trade group，which expects those numbers to grow by 30% this year.
D)None of this is to say that telemedicine has found its way into all corners of medicine. A recent survey of 500 tech-savvy(精通技术的)consumers found that 39% hadn't heard of telemedicine，and of those who haven't used it，42% said they preferred in-person doctor visits. In a poll of 1,500 family physicians，only 15% had used it in their practices—but 90% said they would if it were appropriately reimbursed(补偿).
E) What's more，for all the rapid growth，significant questions and challenges remain.Rules defining and regulating telemedicine differ widely from state 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 telemedicinc. And there's the question of what services physicians should be paid for:Insurancecoverage varies from health plan to health plan，and a big federal plan covers only a narrow range ofservices. Telemedicine's future will depend on how—and whether—regulators，providers，payers and patients can address these challenges. Here's a closer look at some of these issues;
G)Do patients trade quality for convenience？The fastest-growing services in telemedicine connect consumers with clinicians they've never met for a phone，video or email visit—on-demand，24/7.Typically，these are for nonemergency issues such as colds，flu，ear-aches and skin rashes，and theycost around $45，compared with approximately $100 at a doctor's 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 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 to the American Tele me dicineAssociation.
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 minorissues such as upper respiratory(上呼吸道的) infections can 't be thoroughly evaluated by a doctor who can't 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,f ewer than one-third disclosed clinicians’credential or let patients choose;only 32% discussed potential side effects of prescribed medications.Several sites misdiagnosed serious conditions，largelybecause they failed to ask basic follow-up questions，the researchers said.“Telemedicine holdsenormous promisc，but these sites are just not ready for prime time,”says Jack Resneck，the study'slead 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，calling for participating doctors to recognize thelimitations of such services and ensure that they have sufficient information to make clinicalre commendations.
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 orvideo to consult with existing patients about continuing issues.“It's very hard to get paid unless youphysically see the patient,”says Peter Rasmussen，medical director of distance health at the ClevelandClinic. Some 32 states have passed“ parity”(等同的) laws requiring private insurers to reimbursedoctors for services delivered remotely if the same service would be covered in person，though notnecessarily at the same rate or frequency.Medicare lags further behind.The federal health plan forthe elderly covers a small number of telemedicine services—only for beneficiaries in rural areas andonly when the services are received in a hospital，doctor's office or clinic.
L) Bills to expand Medicare coverage of telemedicine have bipartisan (两党的)support in Congress. Opponents worry that such expansion would be costly for taxpayers，but advocates say it would save money in the long run.
M)Experts say more hospitals are likely to invest in telemedicine systems as they move away from fee-for-service payments and into managed-care-type contracts that give them a set fee to provide care for patients and allow them to keep any savings they achieve.
N) Is the state-by-state regulatory system outdated？ Historically，regulation of medicine has been left to individual states. But some industry members contend that having 50 different sets of rules，licensing fees and even definitions of“medical practice”makes less sense in the era of telemedicine and is hampering its growth.Currently，doctors must have a valid license in the state where the patient islocated to provide medical care，which means virtual-visit companies can match users only with locallylicensed clinicians. It also causes administrative hassles(麻烦)for world-class medical centers thatattract patients from across the country.At the Mayo Clinic，doctors who treat out-of-state patientscan follow up with them via phone，email or web chats when they return home，but they can onlydiscuss the conditions they treated in person.“If the patient wants to talk about a new problem，thedoctor has to be licensed in that state to discuss it. If not，the patient should talk to his primary-carephysician about it,”says Steve Ommen，who runs Mayo's Connected Care program.
O) To date，17 states have joined a compact that will allow a doctor licensed in one member state to quickly obtain a license in another. While welcoming the move，some telemedicine advocates wouldprefer states to automatically honor one another's licenses，as they do with drivers' licenses.But statesaren't likely to surrender control of medical practice，and most are considering new regulations. Thisyear，more than 200 telemedicine-related bills have been introduced in 42 states，many regarding whatservices Medicaid will cover and whether payers should reimburse for remote patient monitoring.“Alot of states are still trying to define telemedicine,”says Lisa Robbin，chief advocacy officer for theFederation of State Medical Boards.
36. An overwhelming majority of family physicians are willing to use telemedicine if they are duly paid.
37. Many employers are eager to provide telemedicine service as a benefit to their employees because of its convenience.
38. Different states have markedly different regulations for telemedicine.
39. With telemedicine，patients in regions short of professional medical service are able to receive better medical care.
40. Unlike employers and health plans，insurers have been rather reluctant to pay for some telemedicine services.
41. Some supporters of telemedicine hope states will accept each other's medical practice licenses as valid.42. The fastest growing area for telemedicine services is for lesser health problems.
43. As telemedicine spreads quickly，some of its opponents doubt whether its service quality can be guaranteed.
44. The results obtained by researchers who pretended to be patients seeking help from telemedicine providers are disturbing.
45.Some people argue that the fact that different states have different regulations concerning medical services hinders the development of telemedicine.

Six Potential Brain Benefits of Bilingual Education
A) Brains，brains，brains. People are fascinated by brain research. And yet it can be hard to point to places where our education system is really making use of the latest neuroscience(神经科学) findings.But there is one happy link where research is meeting practice: bilingual(双语的)education.“In thelast 20 years or so，there's been a virtual explosion of research on bilingualism,”says Judith Kroll，aprofessor at the University of California，Riverside.
B)Again and again，researchers have found，“ bilingualism is an experience that shapes our brain for life,”in the words of Gigi Luk，an associate professor at Harvard's Graduate School of Education. Atthe same time，one of the hottest trends in public schooling is what's often called dual-language or two-way immersion programs.
C)Traditional programs for English-language learners，or ELLs，focus on assimilating students into
English as quickly as possible. Dual-language classrooms，by contrast，provide instruction acrosssubjects to both English natives and English learners，in both English and a target languagc. The goal isfunctional bilingualism and biliteracy for all students by middle school. New York City，NorthCarolina，Delaware，Utah，Oregon and Washington state are among the places expanding dual-language classrooms.
D)The trend flies in the face of some of the culture wars of two decades ago，when advocates insisted on “English first”education.Most famously，California passed Proposition 227 in 1998. It was intendedto sharply reduce the amount of time that English-language learners spent in bilingual settings.Proposition 58，passed by California voters on November 8，largely reversed that decision，paving theway for a huge expansion of bilingual education in the state that has the largest population of English-language learners.
E) Some of the insistence on English-first was founded on research produced decades ago，in which bilingual students underperformed monolingual(单语的)English speakers and had lower IQ scores.Today's scholars，like Ellen Bialystok at York University in Toronto，say that research was “deeplyflawed.”“Earlier research looked at socially disadvantaged groups,”agrees Antonella Sorace at theUniversity of Edinburgh in Scotland.“This has been completely contradicted by recent rescarch”thatcompares groups more similar to each other.
F) So what does recent research say about the potential benefits of bilingual education？ It turns out that, in many ways，the real trick to speaking two languages consists in managing not to speak one of thoselanguages at a given moment—which is fundamentally a feat of paying attention. Saying “Goodbye”tomom and then“Guten tag”to your teacher，or managing to ask for a crayola roja instead of a redcrayon(蜡笔)，requires skills called “inhibition”and“task switching.”These skills are subsets of anability called executive function.
G) People who speak two languages often outperform. monolinguals on general measures of executive function.“Bilinguals can pay focused attention without being distracted and also improve in the abilityto switch from one task to another,”says Sorace.
H) Do these same advantages benefit a child who begins learning a second language in kindergarten instead of as a baby？ We don't yet know.Patterns of language learning and language use are complex. ButGigi Luk at Harvard cites at least one brain-imaging study on adolescents that shows similar changes inbrain structure when compared with those who are bilingual from birth，even when they didn't beginpracticing a second language in earnest before late childhood.
l) Young children being raised bilingual have to follow social cues to figure out which language to use with which person and in what setting.As a result，says Sorace，bilingual children as young as age 3 havedemonstrated a head start on tests of perspective-taking and theory of mind—both of which arefundamental social and emotional skills.
J) About 10 percent of students in the Portland，Oregon public schools are assigned by lottery to dual-language classrooms that offer instruction in Spanish，Japanese or Mandarin，alongside English.Jennifer Steele at American University conducted a four-year，randomized trial and found that thesedual-language students outperformed their peers in English-reading skills by a full school-year's worthof learning by the end of middle school. Because the effects are found in reading，not in math orscience where there were few differences，Steele suggests that learning two languages makes studentsmore aware of how language works in general.
K) The research of Gigi Luk at Harvard offers a slightly different explanation. She has recently done a small study looking at a group of 100 fourth-graders in Massachusetts who had similar reading scores ona standard test，but very different language experiences.Some were foreign-language dominant andothers were English natives.Here's what's interesting.The students who were dominant in a foreignlanguage weren't yet comfortably bilingual;they were just starting to learn English.Therefore，bydefinition，they had a much weaker English vocabulary than the native speakers. Yet they were just asgood at interpreting a text.“This is very surprising,”Luk says.“ You would expect the readingcomprehension performance to mirror the vocabulary—it's a cornerstonc of comprehension.”
L) How did the foreign-language dominant speakers manage this feat？ Well，Luk found，they also scored higher on tests of executive functioning.So，even though they didn't have huge mental dictionaries todraw on，they may have been great puzzle-solvers，taking into account higher-level concepts such aswhether a single sentence made sense within an overall story line. They got to the same results as themonolinguals，by a different path.
M)American public school classrooms as a whole are becoming more segregated by race and class.Dual-language programs can be an exception.Because they are composed of native English speakersdeliberately placed together with recent immigrants，they tend to be more ethnically and economicallybalanced. And therc is some evidence that this helps kids of all backgrounds gain comfort withdiversity and different cultures.
N) Several of the researchers also pointed out that，in bilingual education，non-English-dominant students and their families tend to feel that their home language is heard and valued，compared with aclassroom where the home language is left at the door in favor of English. This can improve students'sense of belonging and increase parents’ involvement in their children's education，including behaviorslike reading to children.“Many parents fear their language is an obstacle，a problem，and if theyabandon it their child will integrate better,”says Antonella Sorace of the University of Edinburgh.“We tell them they're not doing their child a favor by giving up their language.”
O)One theme that was striking in speaking to all these researchers was just how strongly they advocated for dual-language classrooms.Thomas and Collier have advised many school systems on how to expandtheir dual-language programs，and Sorace runs“Bilingualism Matters,”an international network ofresearchers who promote bilingual education projects. This type of advocacy among scientists isunusual;even more so because the "bilingual advantage hypothesis”is being challenged once again.
P) Areview of studies published last year found that cognitive advantages failed to appear in 83 percent of published studics，though in a separate analysis，the sum of effects was still significantly positive.Onepotential explanation offered by the researchers is that advantages that are measurable in the veryyoung and very old tend to fade when testing young adults at the peak of their cognitive powers.And,they countered that no negative effects of bilingual education have been found. So，even if theadvantagcs are small，they are still worth it. Not to mention one obvious，outstanding fact:"Bilingualchildren can speak two languages!”
