These are the costs to connect to NHSnet for a PSTN dial up (the
typical connection for most GPs):
Connection charge= 50 pounds
Quarterly rental= 45 pounds
Strong authentication:
Connection charge= 85 pounds
Quarterly rental= 27 pounds
Add to above:
Remote User Agent= c.250 pounds
Security card= cost unknown
Add:
cost permessage= 5 pence
Add: call charges
Add: VAT to all of above.
Frankly, I can't afford that despite obviuos and obscure benefits.
This comes from someone who spends 1000s of pounds on IT in general
practice.
Imagine the reaction of the 30,000 odd poor souls up and down the
country.
