How much does it cost
to care for an empty hospital bed?
It costs about $50,000 per bed
to build a hospital in Oregon. But
that's just the beginning. Many
people and a vast amount of
expensive equipment must be
available day and night in case
someone needs the bed. So rnain
taining or caring for a bed,
whether it's empty or occupied,
costs $29,000 a year.
That's why it's important that
there aren't too many beds or too
few beds in any community.
Too many beds raise the cost of
health care unnecessarily. Too few
beds can be disastrous. To prevent
either possibility, voluntary Health
Planning Associations in Oregon
guide the planning for adequate
health facilities, services, and man
power throughout the state.
In addition, they help coordi
nate emergency services. They
look into health problems caused
by the environment. They help
eliminate duplication of expensive
facilities and equipment. They
' look to see if hospitals, mental
health care services, public health
clinics, and treatment centers are
adequate. They plan for health
care just as people in the com
munity plan for schools highways
urban development.
These organizations are set up
throughout the state. There is one
State Comprehensive Health
Planning Authority. And there are
14 local Comprehensive Health
Planning Associations which are
dependent upon local financing
in order to obtain matching
federal funds.
Although the Comprehensive
Health Planning Associations are
staffed by professionals, con
sumers now have a voice in health
planning in Oregon. In fact, 51
percent of the members of the
boards must be non-professionals.
These people, along with pro
fessionals, meet to review health
care needs in Oregon.
How does Blue Cross of
Oregon fit into this?
Blue Cross
We feel that Comprehensive
Health Planning is the most
effective way to assure quality care
and contain rising health care
costs. So our staff members serve
on Comprehensive Health Plan
ning boards and committees. And
we help these organizations
financially.
We know that this investment
will pay off for all the people we
serve. After all, we can't honestly
say we care for people unless we do
everything we can to help them.
If you'd like to learn more
about planning for health care in
Oregon, just contact your local
Comprehensive Health Planning
Association or write to Blue Cross
of Oregon for information.
Blue Cross of Oregon,
we care for people.
