Hospitals Say Indigent Care Losses Threaten Maryland System
The Hospital Council reports Maryland's 35 voluntary general hospitals lost over 2.5 million dollars in 1957-58 for indigent care. Total days of care reached 255,067 with costs of 6,701,482 while state funds paid only 3,131,212, producing a deficit of 3,570,270. Baltimore City and counties trimmed deficits by about 850,000. The council calls for 80 percent reimbursement by state budget and local government share to avert a collapse of indigent care and general patient standards.
