MEDICARE BENEFITS INCREASED "The overall cost of living keeps going up, and hospital costs are no exceptions," said Charles H. Myers, District Man ager of the Greensboro Social Security Office. Because of the tremendous increase in the cost of the aver age hospital stay social security Medicare beneficiaries will have an increase in their share of hospital costs. Beginning Jan. 1, 1970 the social security ben eficiary will pay the first $52.00 of their hospital costs rather than $44.00 as in the past. In the event the beneficiary stays more than 60 days then his share of the cost will be $13.00 per day for all days over 60 days up to 90 days. Before January 1, 1970 this was $11.00 per da* This means the beneficiary who stays in the hospital 90 days will now pay $442.00 where be fore the increase, he would only have paid $374.00 for the same 90 days.
