Page 6-B Medicare Hikes Effective Jan.l Continued From Page 1 benefits. - The coinsurance amount for the 2lst through the 100th day of care in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) will be $25.50, up $3. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina will absorb all of the higher deductible and all of the coinsurance except for SNF increase for those who have Medicare supplemental coverage through the health plan. The SNF coinsurance amount is not covered by those benefits. The 1980 deductible and coinsurance amounts will remain applicable if a Medicare patient starts a period of illness with a hospital stay beginning in 1980, although he receives services in 1981. The period of illness, however, must be continuous, stated plan officials. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina also administers Part A Medicare basic benefits for the Social Security Ad ministration. So says the VA...

Jewelry Jottings Hindu priests once wore pearl amulets with 27 pearls. Three was a holy number and 27 is 3 times 3 times 3, so it is an especially sacred number. The pearls also had religious signifi cance of their own. We can make up a necklace or bracelet with any number of pearls you wish, or perhaps you'd prefer a pin or earrings.

Capital of I I I I I VYA 1» Oregon Holiday Fatality Estimate Is Grim It’s 2 A.M. on New Year’s day and spirits are soaring as part of the group breaks into yet another chorus of “Auld Lang Syne.” Is anything wrong with this holiday picture? Not yet, but there easily could be if one of the drunken revelers decides to drive home. According to the National Safety Council, drinking is a factor in about half of all fatal traffic ac cidents. In 1979, 25,000 Americans died as a result of motor vehicle accidents involving drivers who had been drinking. National Safety Council reports show also that during last year’s New Year’s holidays, 493 persons lost their lives in traffic accidents and 21,700 suf fered disabling injuries. The council predicts that this year 420 to 520 persons will lose their lives and 19,000 to 23,000 will be injured during the holiday weekend. To help insure that your happy holidays are safe ones as well, the Insurance Information Institute offers some suggestions. ...If you decide to drink and drive, know your limit and stay below it. ...If you go to a party with someone else, one of you should either not drink or should restrict the drinking to insure a safe return. ...Do not drink on an empty stomach. ...Eat something while you are drinking. If you are hosting a party this year, the Institute offers these tips. ...Provide a non-alcoholic punch or eggnog for those who either do not drink at all or are choosing not to drink because they are driving. ...Provide snacks or hors d’oeuvres so that your guests will have something to eat while drinking. ...Be prepared to either put up guests for the night or to provide alternate tran sportation for those who should not drive. Following these suggestions should enable you to ring in the New Year in both a merry and ac cident-free manner. Men and women, who learn to laugh at them selves, even privately, are on the road to self improvement. I Need money for your Christmas ■ Bills?
