Exhibit Of Rising Hospital Costs On Display At Duplin General Hospital Care Association of Durham has placed a Urge ex hibit explaining the rlplng cost of hospital care and medical na?i la lha lobby of d* Duplin General Hospital in- Kenans - mie. The display, about 10 feet wide and 8 feet long, will remain in die hospital for about three weeks. It has been shown at major hospitals throughout the state. J*st prior to the schedule here, die exhibit was on display at the Onslow Memorial Hos pital in Jacksonville. Produced by Hospital Care Association's Public Relations Department, with the coopera tlon of the Duke Endowment and N. C. Baptist Hospital, the ex hibit portrays the reasons why modern patient carg^ posts 5 me.i* It'reveal* that the ave rage cost per patient day in North Carolina hospitals Increased 209.4 per cent since 1946. Yet North Carolina hos pitals still rank 49th In the na tlon In average per diem costs. The exhibit cites three major reasons for the rising costs of patient care In hospitals; salaries, which account for two thirds of every hospital dollar, yet still lag 31 per cent behind community wage scales; cost of equipment; and new tests and] treatments. Voluntary prepayment plans (Blue Cross and Blue Shield) are suggested as the most prac tical solution to the problem of rising hospital and medical costs for the average family. "Today's patient pays more for his hospital care," the ex hibit says "but he gets far more value for his money. There has been a dramatic change In the type of care hospitals provide. ^,-Many of the treatments routine ly offered In hospitals today were not available at any price just a few years ago. Although they are more expensive, they enable the average patient to set well faster and go home from the hospital sooner. Modern hoeplUi njtd medical care, de-> splte^uie\hlgher cost. Is still otlfe # ahe greatest bargains ever offered to the American people, when it comes to thd hospital care, it Is the result, not the cost, that's really Im portant." Free pamphlets containing the same Information on rising hospital costs as shown In the exhibit are available with the exhibit so that hospital patients and visitors who view It may have the Information to take with them.
