Thousands of Americans are candidates for heart transplants , but many will not receive them until they become desperately ill , because donor organs are in short supply . It could also change based on Social Security 's Cost of Living Adjustments ( COLAs ) . That 's because they can not receive government funding . Modest funding would merely mean that all of the benefits of the program will not arrive immediately . However , during the first year of the program , 15 % of those who applied did not receive any funding at all , and there have been more applications filed this year than last year . At the very least , we should expect that carriers will seek to recover their contributions to these additional , new programs from their customers . The study found that 76 percent of patients with a fever were seriously ill , that 49.6 percent had none of the standard indications of serious illness but were later found to be so , and that 13.8 percent of those discharged from the emergency department were later admitted to the hospital with serious ailments , mainly pneumonia , urinary tract infection or sepsis ( bacterial infection of the blood ) . Sixty-five percent of rural schools and libraries that applied for e-rate funding for Year Two are in the 70 percent discount level and would not receive discounts without funding at the $ 2.25 billion level .
