NHS told to ditch 'outdated' pagers The NHS has been told to stop using pagers for communications by 2021, in order to save money.
The health service still uses about 130,000 pagers, which is about 10% of the total left in use globally.
They cost the NHS about £6.6m a year, because only one service provider supports them.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock called them "outdated" and said he wanted to rid the NHS of "archaic technology like pagers and fax machines". BBC News
