Blue Cross Rate
Increase Slated
For December lst

Directors of Group Hospital
Service have decided to increase
Blue Cross-Blue Shield rates an
average of 1877 per cent to meet
increased hospital and medical
costs, effective December /.
"The new rates are still under
those in adjacent states, in spite
of the fact that hospital costs
here are as high as those in the
neighboring states" H. V. May
bee, managing director of Group
Hospital Service, said after the
meeting, held at the Blue Cross
Building, 908 West Street.
"The primary reason we are
able to keep Delaware Blue
Cross-Blue Shield rates below
those of neighboring areas is
that the use of hospital and
medical services by members
has been lower than the extent
of use in neighboring areas"
Use of services has been show
ing an upward trend during the
past two years.
There are Blue Cross-Blue
Shield rates for each of the
many types of standard con-
tracts. Most popular is the
group contract for family, in
the semi-private plan. The rate
for Blue Cross-Blue Shield COW
erage was 1928 a month and
will become $lO.88, an increase
of $l.60 a month, or l7.2 per
cent.
2 Years Since Rise
The rate increases are the
least that could be made to en-
able the Blue Cross and Blue
Shield Plan to meet the hospital
and surgical-medical bills of
members without dipping fur
ther into the plans reserve
funds, as they have been doing
since hospital rates went up in
January, Mr.. Maybee said.
The changes are the first
made in Blue Cross rates for
more than two and half years,
since February, 1857, and in
Blue Shield rates for more than
four and a half years, since Feb
ruary, 1855.
The directors also approved
several contract changes affect
ing nursing home coverage, and
coverage for dependents aged
l9 to % attending schools and
colleges.
The rate of payment by Blue
Cross to nursing homes will be
boosted from So a day to $40
Also the plan will include in its
coverage direct admissions to
nursing homes. Previously, the
nursing home coverage was lim-
tied to cases sent to nursing
or convalescent homes from
general hospitals.
The new coverage for depend
ents attending schools or col
leges will be the forms of an ad'
junct to the family contract
available at So a month extra
At present, coverage of depend
ents under the family contract
stops at their 10Th birthday, anc
children over that age can OBJ
tain coverage only through sep
arate contracts. The new ar
rangement will be more econ
omical for families with depend
ent children attending colleges
The coverage for mental anc
nervous ailments has also beer
liberalized. At present, sucf
coverage may be used once dur
ing the life of the contract. The
new arrangement will permi
use of that coverage severa
times provided l80 days elapst
between discharge and the new
admission.
