National Rural Health Association Supports AT&T/T-Mobile

The National Rural Health Association has written the Federal Communications Commission urging the FCC to approve AT&T's acquisition of T-Mobile.

NRHA says the transaction will substantially increase the opportunity for rural Americans to access 4G LTE high speed wireless service. It will bring state of the art technology to rural areas, enabling the use of sophisticated eHealth applications that rely on video conferencing and real time interaction. Rural high speed wireless users will have the same experience as their urban counterparts.
