What it does mean is that the cost of the program cannot be included in the formula that is used to determine the amount of money Blue Cross pays the hospital a day for patient care, said the announcement.Blue Cross is terminating its coverage at LICH and four other hospitals in Brooklyn and Na sau in an effort to provide an incentive for the institutions to discontinue their open-heart surgery4? %ANTIAmerican Town and County FurnitureCirca 1690Oak, Cherry, Mahogany, Walnut, PineColonial Slat Back,Shaker,Bostonand Lincoln RockersPark Slope207 - 6th Ave. (corner of UNION St.).Three Blocks From GrandArmy Plaza^ D u f aW %u25a0 %u25a0 ft# V |\\ W l VA D a K u A A MB '*** V I f t 'the R&D Trainshours: 11:00a.m. - 8:00p.m.^ ^ n c lu d in g Sundays (212) 789-8151^programs. It is felt that a hospital must perform a minimem number of these operations if standards are to remain high and costs are to be feasible. Blue Cross feels that the number performed at the five hospitals is not high enough to justify coverage.William K. Klein, executive director of LICH has announced that as a result of the Blue Cross action, the Hospital will no longer perform open-heart surgery.PHOENIX, May 10, 1973, Page 13ActivistSolarzContinued from Page 7state universities, he says.He notes, in addition, his citation by the New York Times as one of the best members of the state legislature, and points to his %u201chighly qualified%u201d designation by the Citizens Union.Returning to Leone, Solarz accuses the Borough President of misleading Brooklyn%u2019s sports fans by neglecting the incorporation of a significant clause in the State legislation he pushed towards the construction of a Sports Center in the Borough. The bill, Solarz says, was passed without enabling legislation and the clause which would allow for reimbursement to bondholders if the venture does not work out. %u201cThis is the first such legislation in a decade or so,%u201d Solarz says, adding that without state backing the bonds will not be sold.Believing in the attempt to reverse the Borough downtrend, and acknowledging the beginning development of the Downtown Brooklyn area, plus the turnabout in the Brownstone neighborhoods, Solarz nevertheless feels that the immensity of the task of rebuilding much of the Borough, must be recognized. %u201c The tremendous social and economic problems can%u2019t be washed away with puerile chamber of commerce rhetoric,%u201d he declares.LATE TAX RETURN?%u2014Remember, There is no penalty for late filing if the government owes you money, & you have up to 3 years to claim a refund. 145 Henry St. THE TAX ADVISOR 624-7347| i t t %u00bb * t * * * * i t4 LIKE TO flflUfc UM *fp N E P :iJT IflST?
