Maryland Urged
To RestoreCut
In Medical Care
Sherbow Committee
Opposes $4,000
Slash in Program
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE. Dec. "a COM
mittee charged with reviewing the
Maryland medical care program
today urged the General Assem-
bly, convening January Z to re-
store a $4,000 cut in the pro-
grams budget.
The group headed by former
Judge Joseph Sherbow reported
that unless the money is restored
a curtailment of operations in the
essential service" would result,
leaving many needy patients "un-
treated and uncared for"
The committee on medical care
of the State Planning Commission
appointed the Sherbow group in
compliance with a 1851 General
Assembly resolution. The States
medical care program dates back
to 1945 when Maryland doctors set
out to prove that health problems
could be solved without Federal
aid or intervention.
Care for Two Types.
It provides medical care for
two types of patients-those on
relief rolls and those who are not
on relief rolls but haven't the
money to pay for the financial
burdens of illness. The State pays
the costs on a fee-for-Serv
basis. The 1851 Senate resolu-
ton declared that in six years
cost of the program had increased
by five times. 1t called for a
review of the entire operation.
The report issued today covers
the programs work in the % coun-
ties only, leaving Baltimore City
for a later report. Judge Sherbow's
group included that it would be
''unthinkable to abolish the medi-
cal care program" and declare that
without it heavy economic
burden" would be imposed upon
doctors "who would take care OF
some charity patients while others
would go untreated and uncared
for"
Other Recommendations.
Judge Sherbow's committee fur
ther recommended:
/. That the staff Of the bureau
of medical services of the State
Health Department get into the
field more to "co-ordinate the
activities of state and county de-
partments.
2, That the State launch an
educational campaign to "explalnI
the program to the general public
as we'll as the professions di-
rectly involved"
8. Firm dealing with the in
significant instances OF abuse"
of the program which occasionally
crop up.
4. That the State Health De-
partment inquire into and take!
steps to reduce the cost OF drugs
and frequency of prescriptions.
5. Closer cooperation between
the health and welfare depart
ments at the county level, since the
INDECENT list is set up by county
welfare groups.
Yearly Costs Traved.
The study found that the great
est number of county patients
treated in one year was 28,26O at a
cost of $718,O83 in 1850. The
amount was 80 per cent more than
that spent in 1948. However. the
cost declined in 1851. There has
been no 'five-fold' increase in cost
as mentioned in the Senate resolu-
ton when comparable years are
considered" the Sherbow commit
tee declared.
The $4,000 budget cut was
made without proper and thorough
Investigation of the facts and the
needs of the coming year. and
over the strong protest OF the
Health Department." the report
said. The committee called ad-
ministration of the program fairly
efficient" but pointed to a varla-
ton in operations among the
counties.
