Greg,
You were asking about transmission rates. We have sent 8500 consultation
summaries via MO from our GP After Hours service (GPAAH). We are also
sending from our Allied Health provider (Work Injury Unit). 250 GPs are
installed to date. We will have installed 300 by the end of June.
Chris.

Is the Australian clinical messaging marketplace large enough to sustain
Argus and MO?
It looks as though the GP market will be broken up into regional
affiliations, to which I have no strong objection as long as the
products can and do talk to one another.
