Peter,
This assessment is perhaps a bit harsh; while Telstra has had the
largest takeup of Broadband for Health overall they are certainly not
the only provider. As far as iiNet is concerned, it was a commercial
decision on their part not to participate because they felt unable to
comply with some of the administrative requirements. Certainly
this is
regrettable, because there are several ACT practices that are
satisfied
customers of iiNet and not prepared to change. I don't know what
discussions there may have been between iiNet and DoHA, nor do I know
what specific problems iiNet felt they could not address -- you should
address that question to [EMAIL PROTECTED] :-)
Since you posted your comments on the GPCG list, perhaps you could
forward this e-mail to that list as well.
Thanks,
Geoff

Thanks Geoff. I posted to the GPCG list because the initial question
also went there, in a separate email to the one you received. I'm
copying your reply to this list as well.
Regarding my assumption of a Telstra handout, I find it hard to
believe that the fact that they were the least expensive provider for
some time after the initial rollout, in almost every area of the
company, happened without collusion.
regards,
Peter.
