Health care costs blamed for economic squeeze in Virginia
Roanoke. Robert E. Delano of the Virginia Farm Bureau Federation warns health care costs are nearing a national crisis. He urges preventive medicine, insurance incentives for office care, and a rate review board in 1977 to monitor hospital and doctor charges. The federation also plans to ask audits of Blue Cross payments. Delano notes medical costs consume rising share of personal income. He will await Carter administration cabinet choices before weighing recommendations.
