Vets To Get Home Care In Oregon WASHINGTON, March 18 VP) Ex-GIs with service-connected disabilities will soon get "home town care" in three more states Washington, Oregon and North Carolina, the Veterans Admini stration announced today. This, VA said, will raise to seven the number of states in which veterans needing out- Satient care may be treated in leir own communities when the administration's clinical facilities are not available. The other states are Kansas, Michigan, California and New Jersey. Dr. Paul R. Hawley, VA's chief medical director, also an nounced that contracts had been signed for veterans to use pri vate hospital beds in North Caro lina and Oregon. Reporting he had been assured the hospital plans will be in operation in both states in 30 days, Hawley said approximately 1500 beds will be available in 160 North Carolina hospitals and 1100 in some 60 Oregon hospi tals. Contracts Signed The out-patient contracts for the "home town care" were signed, Hawley said, by the Washington state medical service bureau, the Oregon physicians' service, and the Hospital Saving association of North Carolina. In general, he said, the ar rangements provided for the state service to reimburse doc tors for the care they provide patients. Actual cost to the three state services will be re paid by VA. No profits to them are permuted unaer tne contracts. Under the program, veterans must contact regular VA- chan nels and then select a doctor from a list of cooperating physi cians if they cannot be cared for in VW. out-patient clinics. Hawley said the program will be extended to other states as rapidly as possible. Knife And Fork Club Will Hear Leading Psychiatrist Extension Unit News i Mrs. E. E. Kilpatrick.
