Blue Cross Information Letter Emphasizes Hospital Care Benefits
This prepared letter explains Blue Cross benefits, costs, and the rationale for deductibles. It argues that hospital care should be immediately available in serious illness, notes 1954 averages of $86.65 per case and $10.80 per day, and emphasizes that deductibles control small bills, help fund larger benefits, and ensure beds and nurse time are reserved for the seriously ill.
