Porter Proposes
Health Benefits
Washington Legislation
providing certain prepaid
health insurance benefits for
senior citizens eligible for old
age and survivors insurance
benefits under the Social Se
curity Act has been reintro
duced by Rep. Charles O. Por
ter (D-Ore.).
Porter's bill, H. R. 5667, is
identical to legislation intro
duced by Rep. Aime Forand
(D-R.I.). The Oregon congress
man joined Congressman For
and in sponsoring the bill dur
ing the 85th Congress. There
are minor revisions in the new
bill.
As written, the bill provides
certain hospital and nursing
home services and surgical
services. It is financed by in
creasing contribution rates of
employers and employees by
one-fourth per cent each and
of self-employed by three-
eights per cent. The health
benefits would cause about
half the additions to total
cost.
Under the section concern
ing hospital and nursing home
services, an eligible person
would be insured against the
cost of hospital care. This in
cludes a semi-private room
and such services as the hos
pital customarily furnishes its
bed patients. The insurance
system would not pay the at
tending doctor's bills, except
for surgical services. There
would be a certain freedom of
selection except in emergency
cases.
A patient would receive up
to 60 days of hospitalization in
a 12-month period. Nursing
home care could total up to
120 days, less the number of
days spent in the hospital dur
ing the same 12-month period.
