Medicare program
Medicare program administrators an
nounced recently that their program has
been widely accepted in all branches of
the service.
True gauge of the degree of accept
ance is their payment of 800,000 claims.
This figure does not include the claims
currently being processed. Average cost
of the claims has turned out to be a
surprising average of only $75 per'phy
sician and $109 per hospital.
In spite of the low average cost, the
program has now spent more than $66 mil
lion.
The benefits of Medicare Have been
spread through the services in the fol
lowing percentages: Navy 30 percent,
Army 28 percent, Air Force 40 percent,
and Fublic Health Service two percent.
Questions about Medicare will be ans
wered by Office of Information, Attention
