Members about the high cost of incoming calls to hospital bedside telephones provided by Patientline, Premier and Hospital Telephone Services, notes that charges have not yet been reduced; and calls on the Government to find a practical solution which results in a call cost acceptable to patients, friends and family, NHS trusts, Ofcom and the providers.
