special because Medlin, a
forma- printer, was the first
person to subscribe to the new
prepaid health service offered
by Hospital Care Association
of Durham.
Medlin printed the first cer
tificate issued as payment of
his printing bill to help the
struggling company get
started.
Medlin has remained con
tinuously enrolled with the
company that merged with
Hospital Saving Association
of Chapel Hill in 1968 to form
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of
North Carolina.
Although 50 years have
passed, Medlin remembers
those early days vividly.
“Fifty years have rolled
around since a tall young man
named Dwight Snyder
entered my small print shop
in downtown Raleigh with an
idea.
(Snyder was mte of the
three Raleigh men who
secured a charter of incor
poration from Secretary of
State Stacy Wade for Hospital

« was soon discovered
that an idea was aD he could
offer, as he, like we, were all
struggling to keep our
business running without the
use of cash, which in the year
1933 was very elusive.
“The idea seemed a very
sound one to me and the
trading began,” Medlin
recalls. “Mr. Snyder wanted
a used typewriter, application
forms, and a few insurance
policy forms to begin a new
concept in the insurance field.
“After a few minutes of
tough deliberation, I knew be
had me hooked so I agreed to
accept the first policy as pay
ment for the items be needed
to get him started. Thus, a

the idea of prepayment for
health care in North Carolina
was born.
“Mr. Synder worked hard
and long at great sacrifice,
shared by his wife and three
small children, to expand the
membership. He was very
successful in his membership
effort. After a long struggle to
save this very deserving, but
under financed association, it
was turned over to a group in
Durham that was financially
able to carry it through.”
On November 14, 1933
Hospital Care moved its head
quarters from Raleigh to a
one-room office in downtown
Durham. Credit extensions in
the amount of SI,OOO each,
payable ova an 18-month
period, woe granted by Duke
and Watts hospitals. A cash
operating fund of $350 was
procured from Durham Bank
and Trust Company on a note
signed by George Watts Hill,
a Durham banker and chair
man of Oie board of Watts
Hospital.
Medlin has long since left
the printing business and be
and others from those first
days have lost touch with
Snyda who at last report no
kxtga lives in North Carolina.
But the appreciation for
Snyder’s daring idea of
prepayment still lives.
“I’ve always appreciated
the service Blue Cross and
Blue Shields has provided,’’
said foe 79-year-old Medlin.
“My participation has been
solely as a satisfied memba.
I have watched with pride the
growth of this great company,
and wish for it many golden
anniversaries of service to
mankind.”
Medlin and his wife,
Phoebe, live in Cary. He has
