Health insurers are beginning to offer telemedicine services online that replace the common office visit. Wellpoint provides a video service that allows subscribers to connect with a physician online and receive prescribed treatments. Wellpoint claims that users of its LiveHealth Online service saved a significant amount of money on a typical visit. The data in A2Q1.xlsx contains a a sample of online doctor visits which are consistent with the savings per visit reported by Wellpoint. Assuming that the population is roughly symmetric, construct an 85% confidence interval for the mean savings for a televisit to the doctor as opposed to an office visit.
