Call 623-7621 or 623-9277 Sir, As one who has a somewhat agnostic view of the Extra Billing controversy I was very interested in last week's letter from Dr. Anfossi addressing this issue, and in the several letters which appeared in the Toronto Star of June 7th. With such a wealth of contribution one would expect the issue would have been made crystal clear to a layman such as I, but I still do not find it so. The protagonists of Extra Billing appear to be emphasizing emphasizing the need to improve, or at least maintain, the level of medical care in such areas as the accessibility of doctors and specialists, care of the aged and the provision of adequate medical facilities, yet now here I read a clear concise explanation of how Extra Billing relates to these matters. Is this emphasis merely a smokescreen to obscure a more mercenary motivation or is there really a - more altruistic reason behind the issue? In his letter, Dr. Anfossi states unequivocally that there has never been a money issue as far as the doctors are concerned and yet the very term "Extra Billing" has an indisputable monetary connotation connotation which, unless satisfactorily satisfactorily clarified, will continue continue to imply that some members members of the medical profession are seeking remuneration additional to that provided by m TRINITY UNITED CHURCH Churoh and DtvWonStreets BowmimvMa, Ontario Church Phone Office Phone .623-3912 623-3138 Minister: Rev.

I you're new to Bowmanville, we invite you to make St. Paul's your church home. O.H.I.P. The question remains - why? I find it difficult to believe that these gentlemen are experiencing problems with "making ends meet" as it were and yet I have similar difficulty in equating additional remuneration with the quality of medical care. It may well be that the equation has a component of which I am unaware, is it possible, that along with Extra Billing, the doctors are proposing a reduction in the remuneration provided by O.H.I.P. thereby making more funds available for care of the aged, etc.? I don't believe that the British National Health system system was the sole reason why many of the "best" doctors - and no doubt an equal proportion proportion of the worst ones - chose to leave the country. I would suggest that in this respect the doctors were no different to the candle stick makers. The . motivating factor was the! total' societal and economic condition which has come to be known as "The British Disease". One's immunity to this disease (or perhaps "insulation" "insulation" is a better word) is directly proportional to one's income. I have no doubt that if the system had provided those doctors with an income which was double that obtainable anywhere else in the world, they would have been happy to stay despite the system's inadequacies. It would be interesting to learn how many of these medical emigres chose North America as their new home and how many went to those impoverished Third World countries where their skills are so desperately needed. In truth, perhaps those in the latter category were the "best" doctors. If a logical justification for Extra Billing can be presented in terms which I as a layman can understand then I will give it my support. Until then, I too have heard great argument but "come out by the same door as in I went."

Mr. Parrish is the director of human resourses for an organization known as the Canadian Conference of Teamsters. He was one of three guests who spoke ati the meeting. "No one ever intends to become an alcoholic," said Mr.Parrish. "Generally, they are people like you and me who simply cannot handle handle life." The Vancouver man told the group that he has completed completed extensive work with people who have become hooked on the "legally pushed drug." One example of this type of rehabilitation work took place in an Alberta penitentiary where he dealt with people who had been charged with assault, manslaughter, manslaughter, and murder. Most of these crimes were alcohol-related. While relating the story,' Mr. Parrish said that he had been told by one of the convicts, convicts, "I would go out and get drunk, pass out and black out. That's what I thought Canadians did." "Everyone is entitled to help themselves or at least accept the help that is available available to them," said the founder founder of the voluntary program. program.

It's not all high-fives, hugs and kisses, and Miller time!" Mr. Parrish told the Clarke students that while on tour across Canada, he realized the battle seems never-ending, "and that's where you people come in." "Your behaviour is typical typical of all young Canadians. You are all concerned about the same things. You have the advantage of having having the principal and teachers teachers behind you," he said. "These are the people who will give you all the encouragement encouragement and support that is needed. Mr. Parrish spoke at the high school on June 5. Town council has rejected rejected a plan to hire consultants consultants who would make recommendations recommendations concerning the proper upkeep of municipal buildings. At a meeting Monday night, elected officials took a second look at a committee committee suggestion which would have resulted in the hiring of a Mississauga firm to do a building profile at the Fitness Fitness Centre, Police and Fire Building, and Darlington Darlington Sports Centre. The cost of the report would be $1,500. Councillor Marie Hubbard Hubbard said the hiring is necessary in order to put in place a preventative maintenance program. At the moment, there is no member of staff able to do this work, she said. "At best, we have sent one member of staff to a two-day seminar." seminar." Mayor Winters suggested that the report would only point out things they already already know and he objected to the municipality going to Mississauga to find the re quired consultants. "If we don't have enough expertise on our staff to address address this problem, then we've got problems," he said. Councillor Hal McKnight noted that a preliminary report report by a consultant usually leads to a proposal for a complete management program. He suggested that it would be more appropriate appropriate to arrange a preventative preventative maintenance program through the Durham Region which has a "broader base of buildings". Councillor Diane Hamre disagreed with charges that the town has let buildings deteriorate in recent years. "We've done what we could afford to do which was a major improvement over what had been." The resolution to hire the consultants was lost on a vote of 4-2. Councillors Stapleton and Hubbard were voting in favor of the proposal. 5 ' 'V k TIRED OF THE SAME OLD LUNCH?
