Hospitals Agree TO Cut
Cost tof Aiding Patients
by Chest

Washington area hospitals have
accepted 20 per cent cut in their
charges to patients sponsored by
the Community Chest, it was an
nounced yesterday by Chauncey
J. Parker. president Of the Com
munity Chest Federation.
The federation recently asked
hospital officials to accept pay
ment on a pro-rata basis after the
1949 disqualification fund was
found inadequate to cover the
agreed rate of s11 per day for the
rest of the year.
Retroactive to June /. the hos
pitfalls will receive through the
Hospital Service Agency $3.50 for
each adult impatient day, $1.60
for each infant impatient day,
and $3.50 for each clinic visit.
The former rates were $11 and 81.
Mr.. Parker said he was in
formed the hospitals had accepted
80 per cent of the old rate for
the rest of 1949 for all medically
INDECENT patients certified by the
Hospital Service Agency by Walter
N. Tobriner, president OF the
Metropolitan Hospital Council.
Mr.. Parker said the request
for the cut had to be made to
the hospitals because the approx
innate IS per cent support of
last years Community Chest fund
goal made it impossible to pro-
vide more than $482, ,460.50 in the
Federation disqualification fund.
Hospital officials are to be
complimented for their co-opera-
tion," he said. He noted that the
hospitals now will serve Chest
certified patients at "even a
greater loss" than they were
sustaining under the full con-
cession rate.
Chest Federation officials said
any balance in the total hos
pitalization fund at the end of
the year will be paid to the
hospitals proportionately on the
basis of services by each hospital
in each, category.
