Regional council urged to oversee hospital expansion
Stowell rejected an 82 percent rate rise for Blue Cross and endorsed a plan for a regional hospital planning council in southwestern Ohio. He argued the council would oversee new bed construction, ensure fair regional costs, and prevent subsidies of waste while allowing optional higher charges for private rooms. He noted a 3 percent maintenance increase is not justified now due to planned additions.
