Alpine doctor fights ER policy in Big Bend hospital
Dr. William Lockhart a 74 year old Alpine physician who helped establish Big Bend Memorial Hospital says he was discouraged after the board approved a July regulation barring doctors over 65 from emergency room rotations and requiring a consulting physician for critically ill or accident patients. He claims a medical staff clique pushed the rule to ruin his practice while BBMH officials say an ongoing state board investigation governs him and the board took emergency steps to address it. He plans to hire an attorney and appeal the restrictions.

County approves hospital budget despite objections
Ector County commissioners unanimously backed a $57.5 million hospital budget for Medical Center Hospital for 1983-84, with plans to raise salaries by about 5 percent after wage surveys. Precinct 3 Commissioner Julian Pressly objected to raises amid a countywide wage freeze, noting room rate increases are earmarked for salaries. The budget projects a $3.57 million end-year surplus on $61 million in revenues, and a nurse shortage of 30 staff. Public debate included education funding concerns over equipment spending for doctors. Separately, County Judge Jan Fisher will address jail standards after a July inspection revealed 12 violations, with about half corrected.
