BABY CHICKS READY TO GO OLDS HATCHERY GEORGE and ALMA RICHARDS PHONES Res. 226-3763 Yy ur M. L. A, Report By R. C. Clark, M.L.A. During the past week discussion of the Bydget continued, and last Friday, the Hon. Dr. J. Ross, Min- ister of Health for the province, outlined programs for his depart- ment this year. In the course of Dr. Ross’ remarks, he pointed out that the patient’s share as prov'd- ed through the co-insurance pay- ments run from $1.60 to $2.00 which makes up 6.6% of the total operating cost. You will recall that the reven- ues and expenditures committee which has looked into the opera- tions of the various Government departments has completed its study of the Department of Health. Among the recommendations. made by this Committee was a sugges- tion to increase the co-insurance rate in active treatment hospitals across the Province to a complete rate of $2.50 per day. This rate of $2.50 will pay for only a small part-of the cost of the Board, Room, Drugs, Dressings and various other services provided by our hospitals. Dr. Ross also announced. that an order to provide additional funds towards the operations costs; for hospitals, that an initial $5.00 admittance fee will become effec- tive July 1st. This means that the first day in an active treatment hospital it will cost the patient $7.50 and thereafter it will be $2.50 per day for public ward aecomoda- tion. I should point out that the Alberta Hospitals Association, which is a representative organiza- tion of the hospitals of the pro- vince, have agreed with the recom- mendation made by the Revenues and Expenditures Committee to, first of all, increase the co-insur- ance charge and, secondly, for the inauguration of an admission fee, You will recall that in my re- ports to you before the Session that I mentioned the government was considering changes in the Al- berta Health Care Plan. I should point out to you that these sug- gested changes will go into ef- fect in the near future: 1. Subsidies up to 80% of the premium will be available for those people who have no taxable in- come; 2. 50% for those people with a taxable income which is less than $500.00; 3. 25% of the premium for peo- ple with a taxable income between $500.00. and $1,000.00. It is the Government's feeling people to take advantage of the benefits’ that are now being made available to them. The maximum] permium that can be charged for comprehensive physician’s services is still fixed at $159.00. There are only 10% of the contracts that are at the maximum premium. The rest of them are below the maximum. It is the intention of the Depart- ment of Health to include in the Alberta Health Care Plan dn ex- tended Health Benefits Policy. This additional policy will include: . 1, Preseribed drugs that are pur- chased for the participant’s own use and that are prescribed by a Doctor; 2. The Professional Refractive Services of Optometrists excluding the Frames and Lenses, the Fees are in accordance with an agreed schedule. that will limit the bene: fit to a Refraction once every two years for adults, and once a year for children; 3. The services of Physiothera- pists, with a maximum allowance of $100.00 a year per contract. 4. The services of Psychologists, who are becoming a more import- ant Professional Assistant with the Health and Medical Profession in dealing with Emotional Illnesses, with a maximum of $100.00 a year: 5. Ambulance Services that are incidental to Hospital Care; 6. The temporary rental of ap- pliances such as Wheelchairs, Hos- pital Beds, Iron Lamgs, Oxygen Tents and the cost of Prosthetic Appliances, such as Artificial Limbs, Casts, Trusses and Braces. 7. Included in this policy as well, will be the services of Pediatrists, Osteopaths, Chiropractors and Nat- uropaths, that will have again a maximum allowance on a per per- son basis and a contract basis of probably $100.00 per person and $200.00 for a family contract. The Carriers are working with their Actuaries to give us, to the best of their knowledge, the types of pre- iums that would be required to provide this type of a policy. We expect that they will be certainly within the reasonable reach of most of our citizens and certainly those who are entitled to the Sub- sidies of 80%, 50%. and 25%, as well as those who are capable of paying their own amounts in full. In all probabiity, this contract may well have a small initial deduct- ible amount. It may ‘well be at a lower level than is the normal practice in insurance policies to- day, because we are intent on de- veloping the type of a contract that will make available to our people the kind of Health Benefits that we believe will provide a compre- hensive “Package Policy” of physi- cian services and other benefits that they desire to have and that will be within their financial reach to achieve and attain. At this time no definite arrange- that this will encourage many more}. ments have been completed for catastrophic coverages. However, investigations are cont:nuing to be carried out in this area. I should point out, in conclusion, | that no mention has been made in| my report of Dental care. During 4 this past year the Government had | a number of meetings with the Dental Association in regard to the | manner in which they might pro-! vide an acceptable type of program that the Government could. intro- duce regarding: our competitive Health Care Plan. At this date no — program has been worked out.
