Claim:
1. A method of programming an implantable cardiac monitoring device, comprising: in a programmer, detecting entry of a patient's age; thereafter transmitting programming commands from the programmer to the implantable cardiac monitoring device including an arrhythmia criterion selected as a function of the patient's age; in the programmer, detecting entry of a reason for monitoring; thereafter transmitting programming commands from the programmer to the implantable cardiac monitoring device including a prioritization of an arrhythmia storage criterion, the cardiac monitoring device having first and second sense electrodes on a housing of the device, wherein the implantable cardiac monitoring device is a leadless implantable cardiac device; and responsive to receipt of the programming commands, employing the implantable device to detect the arrhythmia according to the criterion and employing the implantable cardiac device to store records of the arrhythmia according to the prioritization.
