The proposed allocation of beds
lists 1500 beds to mental hospitals,
700 to tuberculosis hospitals, 400
to health (medical) centers, 400 to
the University teaching hospital,
and 4200 to be distributed on a
basis of need to new hospitals and
for enlargement of existing hospi
tals Also, it is noted, the state expects
to acquire a large part of Camp
Butner at Durham and use its 3,374
hospital beds for mental patients,
thereby increasing new mental
beds to 4,874 and the total new beds
for all hospitals to 10,574.
The five-year plan will cost ap
proximately $48,000,000, one-third
of which would be paid by Federal
grant under provisions of the Hill
Burton Bill. The remaining two
thirds would be paid in equal
part by state and local agencies.
More than two years of investi
gation of the State's health situa
tion preceded formulation of the
plan.
Population 'figures used by the
Commission as a, basis for deter
mining ' the location of hospital
units are 1943 estimates and not
from the 1940 census. This was re
ute k freab.
