Abstract
About 75 percent of all telephone calls are not completed on the first attempt. Electronic mail offers an attractive and (often) cost‐effective alternative to voice communications. Important criteria in selecting a service are ease of use, ease of access, system features, and costs. The experience of MEDLINK in selecting and implementing an electronic mail service is described.
