An elliptic transmission problem in disjoint domains is investigated. The existence and uniqueness of its weak solution is proved. A finite difference scheme approximating this problem is proposed and analyzed. An estimate of the convergence rate, compatible with the smoothness of the input data (up to a logarithmic factor of the mesh size) is obtained.
