Rate Boosts Awarded To Blue Cross

Harrisburg AP reports Insurance Commissioner Francis R. Smith said he has no alternative but to grant partial rate increases to Blue Cross plans serving most prepaid hospitalization subscribers in Pennsylvania. He noted groups mainly employed and affiliated with Blue Cross units would bear the costs, while declines to estimate final increases. At hearings, several associations sought increases from 23 to 42 percent on various contracts, claiming losses approaching exhaustion of reserves before August 15. Smith will issue a decision by June 15, with 45 days needed to implement schedules, and Pittsburgh's City intervention urged some relief. The City Solicitor cautioned against overstatement of relief.

Western Pennsylvania Blue Cross seeks rate increase

William H. Ford, president of Western Pennsylvania Blue Cross, argued for full rate increases to avoid insolvency, citing 10 percent annual hospital cost growth and 1 percent bed utilization rise. He warned a failure to raise rates could force a return to higher premiums within a year. The plan shows losses of 1 million dollars last year and 12 million so far this year, with reserves barely enough for three quarters of a month. Ford said the proposed increases would add 1.65 monthly for 214 policyholders and 2.24 for standard policies, yielding about 12 million dollars in additional annual revenue. He also proposed improvements to the standard contract including visiting nursing care for patients 65 and over, more hospital days for the elderly, and outpatient diagnostic services.
