Medicare changes promise broader coverage for seniors
Social Security officials describe Medicare improvements and new changes to the 1867 amendments. The text notes lifetime inpatient reserve, full charges for radiology and pathology, expanded home and facility care, and easier enrollment rules for those 65 and older. It states premiums rise to 4 dollars a month by 1968 with government matching, and enrollment remains open through April 1 1963 for those missing earlier chances.
