The House Ways and Means Committee starts voting today on a comprehensive health care bill for the aged with House passage forecast in about two weeks. Chairman Mills says essential decisions could be made by Friday to allow action during the week of March 1. The draft includes a payroll tax funded hospitalization plan, an additional health expense plan, higher Social Security old age payments, and broader state federal health care measures for indigent and elderly. The president expects a near end to the long debate and a program of health insurance for older people.
