Health Board Hears Complaint From Doctor
Dr. Charles W. Merritt told the Beckley Raleigh County Health Board that indigent pregnant patients are being sent to Raleigh hospitals by the State Welfare Department. He warned of a revolt as last minute cases arrive with little or no prenatal care, burdening nine obstetricians in the county. Dr. Dyer supported coordination improvements while outlining a state plan to localize program operations. The board approved establishing a local milk and water testing laboratory at a cost of 625 dollars and ordered payment of debts from the past month.
