Medicare Premiums To Go Up In 1970 Across Nation
The Medicare supplementary premium will rise to 5.90 dollars per month starting July 1, a 32.5 percent increase from 4.00. Secretary Finch linked the hike to the 15 percent Social Security rise set for January 1. The program began in 1968 at 3 dollars monthly, now serving over 19 million. A separate 52 dollar deductible for hospital stays up to 60 days also takes effect January 1, amid inflation concerns and opposing views from consumer groups. The Ames Township meeting on January 8 at 7:30 p.m. was moved from January to Amesville.
