Over $1 Million In Repayments Over one million dollars In repayments of Old Age Assistance grants for the year ending December 31, 1965, was re ported by the State Department of Public Welfare today. Twelve counties had repayments amounting to more than $20,000.00 each. Putnam County received $5,087.10 for the year according to Curt Higgins, County Welfare Director. Albert Kelly, State Welfare Administrator, states that the bulk of these repayments are collections from the estates of deceased Old Ago Assistance recipients. Indiana law provides that a lien be attached to the property of all Old Age Assistance recipients for the amount of assistance payments and medical care payments granted to them. The lien is not enforceable during the lifetime of a recipient nor against property occupied by the surviving spouse. Mr. Kelly noted that recoveries were made in all ninetytwo counties of the state and ran from a high of $70,903.61 to a low of $8.00. In a good many cases total repayment of all Old Age Assistance granted was received for the benefit of the taxpayer and without hardship to the recipients.
