Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We intend to include a budget item in our main estimates. It costs approximately $60,000 to $80,000 for the Telehealth equipment for each location. That is the video equipment plus the accessories that go with that. Along with it, there is a significant amount of training that has to go on so that the health care providers know how to use the technology and that is part and parcel of the project costs. So, you can appreciate there is also a time element involved with getting the equipment in place, installed, then training the staff so they are able to use it and then also getting the patients familiar with the equipment and the technology and comfortable with that process, as well. Thank you.
