Charity Trips: A major aspect of hospi-organization and management is the method which the hospital is financed. Traditionally, spitals were supported by either private or blic charity trips and were intended mainly to serve ly the poor. Today, in the United States, ipitals are financed largely by payments for vices. This change in financing would not re been possible without the development of IB Cross prepayment plans and group health urance plans. The introduction of Medicare Medicaid in the mid-1960's provided hospi-s with additional sources of payments. In spite of the increase in payments to ipitals for services, the need for both public 1 private charity trips continues. Private charity trips is :ded to provide capital for new buildings, lipment, and other facilities.Field trips have many learning values. Usually it is best to have one or two definite purposes in making each trip. One fifth grade took a trip to the old Van Cortlandt Mansion to study colonial life and industries. They went to a bakery, to neighboring stores, and to a food exhibition to supplement their practical work in home economics. In order to derive the most benefit from field trips, the class should discuss beforehand what to look for and should summarize their findings after the trip.
Public charity trips is ided to assure hospital care for the poor, the aporarily unemployed, and others who are not jible for health insurance programs. Both ms of charity trips are needed to assist in the iport of emergency, out-patient, and home e services, for which as yet there is only lim-l insurance coverage. Although payments for vices are increasing, many hospitals continue have deficits that must be met by donations. The cost of hospital care in the United States i been rising steadily since 1945 and by the fO's averaged more than $60 a day per patient the short-term general hospital. Most of this t represents salaries and wages paid to hospital sonnel. |
