Health Insurance Growth Remarkable In Nation

By JACK V. FOX United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. (UP) - The vast General Electric Co. started in the autumn of 1955 a new “comprehensive" medical insurance plan which is being scrutinized by other businesses as a possible model. The GE plan, underwritten by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., differs mainly from older plans in that it covers most bills outside hospitals, hds no set schedule of fees and provides major coverage up to $15,000 The major criticism of the plan is that it is open to widespread misuse and overuse by employes and by doctors. About 96 per cent of General Electric's 325.000 workers voted for the comprehensive plan after bargaining with the company through 93 unions Taking in their families, approximately 500,000 persons are covered. Here are some of its main provisions: For hospital rooms, services, surgery, anesthetics and X-rays, the GE employe must pay the first $25 of cost himself. Benefits are 100 per cent of the next $225. After that, the policy pays 85 per cent of additional expenses and the patient 15 per cent—up to $7,500. “Ftfty-DoUar Deducible For doctor fees other than surgery, performed any place, for registered nurses, various treatments and for medicines requir-

ing a prescription, the employe pays the first SSO. The remainder of expense is borne 75 per cent by insurance and 25 per cent by the patient—up to $7,500. Excluded from coverage is dental care, except for surgery, eye glasses, hearing aids and medical examinations or laboratory tests for “regular physical checkups.” It is noteworthy in the latter case that should an employe undergo a checkup showing that he is in need of treatment, the diagnostic charge usually is covered, should the checkup show him sound and well, he must bear it himself. General Electric also provided for a more limited medical insurance for employes reaching the age of 65 who had been with the company for 10 years or more. The doctor is the judge of the type and amount of care required, but he is subject to the provision that the bill must be “reasonable, necessary and customary ” Didn’t Work In Maine One critic pointed out that a similar "comprehensive’’ type insurance was tried at an iron works in Maine. He said that within a short time the workers and their families were making so many and such unnecessary demands that the project had to be dropped in favor of insurance establishing set fee scheluled for specific care One Metropolitan official cautioned that if voluntary health in-

surence becomes too costly. compulsory government insurance may not be far off. He quoted one physician as saying: “The time has come when we must wise up the doctor and wise up the patient, or else." Voluntary plans can be priced out of the market, he said, if patients and doctors spend more than is needed simply because there is insurance. The human elements enters very much into this consideration. One doctor pointed out that a person feeling sick might (A) shrug it off and go to work, (B> go to bed, <C» call his doctor, or <D) demand to be taken to a hospital. The response of persons with the same degree of illness will vary greatly among those four choices. (Tomorrow: The government’s position on health insurance.! ——— —— G.E. Choir Music Collection Given To Public Schools A valuable music library, formerly used by the Decatur .General Electric Aeolian choir, has been donated to the Decatur public schools, it was announced today. The G. E. choir, active in this community from 1943 to 1956. has now formally disbanded and has liquidated all property. Over the years the choir acquired from 61,000 to $1,500 worth of music, including a varied selection of secular and sacred choral numbers! The G. E. management and the '.last officers of the choir decided to present the music collection to Decatur high school. Miss Helen Haubold, supervisor of vocal music in the school, and the school board and administrative staff have extended their appreciation for the gift.

I Indianapolis belatedly set the ■ pattern for a husky bloc of Central Indiana counties and cities Thursi day when the Chamber of Coml inegee board of .directors surprised > “fast” time advocates with an announcement the city's business . and industry would go on "alow” time starting Monday The announcement prompted the I city council of the state's capital and largest city to schedule another meeting today, obviously to rescind an earlier decision recommending "fast” time for the Marion County area. Even before the Indianapolis decision was known, smaller cities in the nearby area voted to com- 1 ply with the intent of the Legislature regardless of what Indianapolis did. Scheduled to stay on “fast” time were such sities as Fort Wayne, Richmond and Aurora, all 1 of them within a stone's throw of the Ohio State Line. Ohio is in the Eastern Time zone. Fort Wayne reached a decision weeks ago and made no move to change its mind. 1 Aurora has observed “fast” time . in line with the Ohip schedule for years. Richmond’s decision came ; Thursday when a; “Committee of 1Q0” industrial, retail and professional men voted to operate on EST. Meanwhile, the co-author of the time bill charged that persons favoring year-round daylight time "are seeking once more to create confusion throughout the state.” Sen. Richard Newhouse (R-Mdr-ristown) .co-author of the bill with Sen. Arthur S. Wilson (D-Prince-I ton >, expressed “disappointment and disgust with attempts to persuade the mayor and councils of Indianapolis to ignore the law” which requires that Hoosier cities return to ''aJoaT’ time Sept. 29. Indianapolis Mayor Phillip Bayt and the City Council had issued a statement Wednesday in which they declared their intent to re- ' main on "fast” time when the rest of the state goes back to Central Standard Time Sunday. But Hoosierland’s largest city appeared ready to fall in line Thursday when the Chamber of Commerce announced its board of directors decided to recommend a return to “slow” time as Required by law. Newhouse said the time bill is a "compromise worked out in an attempt to play fair with those on both sides of the issue.” He added that while there were “a great many people who strongly oppose "fast” time for the summer months, they still went a.long with it and there was no confusion regarding time in Indiana during that period.” Newhouse said the hardware store he owns in Morristown will be run on “slow” time beginning Sunday. Meanwhile, at least one more city openly defied the law and another indicated it Would cdmply. ' A group of industrialists, retailers, and professional men met Thursday at Richmond and directed the city’s "Committee of 100"—the-Chamber of Commerce will be operated on Eastern Stand-
