Vermont probes unequal hospital insurance plans
The Vermont Banking and Insurance Department opens a probe into claims of unequal hospital insurance claim service after Travelers Insurance Co sues in federal court in Pennsylvania. Travelers alleges hospitals charge lower rates to Blue Cross Blue Shield patients, while Blue Cross Blue Shield accounts for about 40 percent of Vermont health insurance. The official notes that if true, 60 percent of people subsidize the 40 percent. A second report notes a Guatemalan DC3 airliner with 35 aboard crashed while attempting an emergency landing, killing five and injuring 18.

He supports Velco plans, likely in Addison County by 1976, and notes Vermont should plan and supply its own power, while gently challenging Gov Davis's suggestion to consider out-of-state sources first.
