The research-based pharmaceutical industry can play a critical role in ensuring a country’s future competitiveness in an advancing global economy. Here are a few noteworthy statistics about medicine industry in Figure 1. [Figure 1 shows USA Pharmaceutical Industry Annual Revenue from 2010 to 2020, with Total, Domestic, and International lines.] Thanks to advances in science and technology, the pharmaceutical industry is entering an exciting new era in medicine development and customer services. Over the past two decades, the medicine industries in different countries have been increasing the research and development (R&D) expenditure (see Figure 2), which can turn fundamental research into innovative treatments that are widely available and accessible to patients. [Figure 2 shows Pharmaceutical R&D Expenditure in Europe, USA, Japan, and China for 2000, 2010, 2019, 2020.] In addition to R&D, technology in pharmacy has been making significant strides to improve the whole industry. These advancements below are diverse and cross-functional. 1. Patient Relationship Management (PRM) Due to the longer time it takes to complete and deliver prescriptions, online pharmacies are using PRM software to manage client contacts through social media, short message service, and email. Additionally, it increases the patient’s trust in their preferred pharmacies and offers ready-to-use discussion points for the patient’s interactions with their doctor. 2. Automated Dispensing Cabinet (ADC) ADC is a computerized drug storage device or cabinet designed for hospitals. It enables the tracking of drug distribution and managing expired medications. This increases fill time, decreases human error, and allows staff to focus on patient contact rather than filling the prescription. 3. Medication Therapy Management (MTM) MTM, an online platform to manage a patient’s medication, is a review provided by a pharmacist to a patient, and medication problems can be identified and addressed. Problems may include medications not being used correctly, duplication of medications, and unnecessary medications. 4. Medication Reminder Devices Patients may get smart medicine reminders from a variety of devices in the market. Technology for these include reminder devices that lock after taking the correct dose, alarms and flashing lights when a patient requires a dose, and a patient compliance dashboard that can show the next scheduled dose.

在處理這類資訊對照題時，關鍵在於「文本定位」與「功能核心」的精準比對。請你重新審視原文中關於 $Patient Relationship Management (PRM)$ 的描述，思考該段落所強調的「維護客戶聯繫」與「增加病患信任」，在邏輯上是否等同於選項中所提到的「尋找最低價格」與「節省醫療成本」？
