The best testimony to the deep interest of North Carolina health leaders in the mounting chrome disease problem is in the re sponse to the questionnaire senl to participants: 41 were distri buted 39 answers were returned "A possible record for this type of opinion—poll “ the report states. The purpose of the survey was to determine whether chronic di j sease is a priority concern of the j health-welfare leaders, and, if so, i to publicize the . information “so j that action groups with access to ! funds for more intensive investi gation, and with more power to ! frame plans for the future might be encouraged to begin work." Listed as major needs in the chronic disease field were more funds for treatment, nursing care, hospitalization, outpatient care, subsistence for the. physical ly limited, chronic disease beds : in general hospitals, chronic di sease hospitals or pavilions, more nursing homes, boarding homes, and home care service and fa cilities, Also listed were funds and programs for rehabilitation 1 of chronic disease patients, train i nig for the professional person 1 nel, earlier care-finding to offset : chronic illness, earlier treatment, and more health education In, chronic disease, field Change in health insurance po licies to embrace hourly nursing of chronically ill patients in the home was stressed, as well as broader health insurance cover age of individuals for long-term illness. One physician suggested I hat the State needs to ‘get the General Assembly to provide funds to purchase hospital in surance to cover actual patient day cost for the indigent and medically indigent patient to include professional services i which would be rendered free by physicians to The certified indi ! gent,”. Other suggestions of allev!- iating the prob'em included extensive research, county-hy county into the ehronir, ill ness problem and dissemina tion of the information gath ered. survey of ail present services and facilities avail able and broad publicizing of the data; cooperative, plan ning and rorordinafed action involving every area of pro fessional service dealing with chronic illness; better com munication of needs for the chronically ill to legislators. In summary', the report, de clared that from the thought fulness shown in the answers it | appears likely that these health leaders are prepared to give cre ative impetus to any efforts made in the direction of improving the chronic illness picture. It is clear that the participants would seek the advices and judgments of many people, from all areas of health and social service at both i State and local levels.
