So. of M<-H«iry on Crystal Lake blacktop Opening in Mc DR. ARTHUR S. HOWARD Chiropractor 2606 S. River Rd. -- McHenry Closed Thursdays Ph.: 385-3520 Has modern medicine and hospital care overlooked a vital factor in telling the people the fccts about the care they receive? People are living longer. They appear to be enjoying life more, living useful invigorating lives. However, costs of hospital care cloud their thinking when it comes to discussingthe "skyrocketing cost" of hospital bills. A look at today's health care is appropriate, for an increase in hospital rates sould be placed in perspective. Factors behind the climbing costs are many, Bert Hanson, administrator for Memorial hospital for McHenry county said this week. "Sometimes we overlook the fact that patients who a few years ago would have failed to survive a serious illness now received amazing medical care at a hospital and are at home in three weeks or a month," he observed. "Take the example of a pneumonia patient. Formerly he was cared for at home. Today the modern doctor prefers to care for him at a hospital." "As a result, we have reduced death rate from 20 percent to less than 1 percent, and the duration of the disease from three weeks to one," Because of modern drugs, equipment and techniques, we have increased the cost of helping the patient get well five-fold, but he does survive the illness. What you pay for services at Memorial hospital does concern the board of directors, Hanson continued. A study of patient bills through the past few years shows that 80 percent of the total is covered by hospitalization insurance. What brings about the increased costs at a hospital, which in turn triggers a rise in room rates? New Scientific developments, DIETETIC MEETING The role of frozen convenience foods in today's food service will be the topic of the Dec. 6 meeting of the North Suburban Dietetic association. Forest View High school, Arlington Heights , will host the 7:30 p.m. buffet dinner featuring a variety of frozen, prepackaged convenience foods. Be Wise Shop In McHenry BEATRICE B. NIELSEN Beatrice B. Nielsen, 72, of 307 Avanda court, Clearwater, Fla., died Wednesday, Nov. 29, in Highland Park hospital, Highland Park, where she had been a patient three weeks. Mrs. Nielsen, who had resided in Florida for about ten years was born June 13, 1895, in Patterson, N.J. Her husband, James, died in 1966. She leaves two daughters, Mrs. John (Marjorie) Mason of Paw Paw, Mich., and Mrs. Ivan (Betty) Stephens of Buffalo Grove; one son, James, of McHenry, and four grandchildren. The body rests at the George R. Justen & Son funeral home after 6 p.m. Thursday. Rev. Donald Johnson will officiate at services to be held Friday at 1 o'clock after which the body will be sentto Clearwater, Fla., for interment Saturday. Graveside rites will be held at 2 p.m. in Sylvan Abbey Memorial Park. more efficient diagnosis and treatment, and improved patient care and other major factors. One new factor in hospital costs has not been fully digested. This is the Medicare program started over a year ago. Influx of patients has been high, and payment by the government on its share of the cost has been slow. This means the hospital has to carry the accounts receivable, tieing up its operating capital. Because of the finest medical care in history, people are living longer, and enjoying life. And the increase in cost is small compared with the benefits you receive at your modern hospital, Hanson concluded. Student Council There was an officers' meeting at 7 o'clock last Monday, followed at 8 o'clock by the regular session. ft was decided that the FFA and the Student Council would buy and decorate the Christmas tree in the hall this year. Later, Dr. Bergstrom was present to explain the referendum to obtain sufficient money to complete the new high school. The council decided to help pass the referendum.
