Hanson, Venice Hospital administrator, says Ford's 1977 Medicare proposal offers a seven percent per diem limit that ignores rising costs and does not account for input factors or mandated programs. He cites liability, pensions, wages, and code changes as evidence of likely hospital pressure, urges incentive-based reimbursements, and notes cost comparisons with rate reviews in other states.
