PHYSICIANS AND FEES.
A Medical Wow of the Doctors Charge
For His Services

For His Services.
Those who discuss the physicians
fee frequently miss the essence of IL.
AS matter of fact. under present
social conditions the charge made to
the wealthy and well to do is the nor
NAL and proper fee: the lowered
charges made TO those less fortunate
are concessions. The tremendous field
Of the physicians charity is therefore
usually underestimate. for it extends
TO great majority of his patients.
In olden times, when medicine was
nearly all art and but little science,
the fee sxas unknown. Like other art
lists. the leech received an h0porarium,
the weight OF which depended natu-
rally upon the resources OF the patient.
The popular impression that physi-
clans make the rich pay for the poor is
incorrect They extend their services TO
all alike. and all are supposed to pay as
much rs they can afford for services
really priceless and impossible to rep
resent adequately In money values
Any attempt made to establish stand
ard fees by law is sure to work in
justice TO the physician. The stand
ard" fee would have to be much high
er than the average fee nj present and
there would have 20 be some method
of enforcing its sure payment Only
with the standard fixed. as now. by
the ability of the wealthy is IL possible
for the poor to receive the benefits OF
the highest professional skill without
losing their self respect-Ncw York
