     HSPNET-L provides consultation, a monthly digest, and a data
     base of hospital networks.  It emphasizes restoration and
     extension of consulting for rural hospitals by connection to
     major medical centers.  All aspects (hardware, software,
     staff training, confidentiality of patient data, etc) will
     be covered.  Particular attention will be paid to existing
     networks both in USA and abroad. Transmission of both text
     and medical image data will be considered via both land-
     lines and satellite.  The cost-effectiveness of such
     distance-consulting will be reviewed in the light of
     declining rural hospital acute-care capabilities, and the
     economic benefits of keeping the patient in the rural area.
