A flat fee of $535 will be charged if a woman and her baby are San discharged within 24 hours of the mother's admission. Previously, the cost of a ur stay with 24-ho- these services was $616. This fee will include use of labor and delivery rooms, exfetal monitoring and ternal episiotomy if needed, recovery in the obstetric ward, and nursery services for the baby. Addi -tional medications, meals for the doctors services, mother, internal fetal monitoring, and circumcision are not included in . the set fee of $535. Bill Reger, chief executive officer of San Juan Health Care announced that the Services, changes were made so San Juan Hospital can remain competitive with other health care providers, such as delivery and birthing centers. : These facilities are licensed to provide up to 24 hours of labor and non-hospi- tal delivery services for women with a low risk of obstetrical complications. They are not staffed or equipped to handle high risk women and their babies, or un- expected complications, Reger pointed out that these centers do not have to meet the same strict construction or hospital codes, so their costs are For the same, or less, lower. cost as a delivery center, women using San Juan Hospital have access to hospital facilities, with equipment and profes- back-u- p sional staff. reduced rate is only This available for stays up to 24 hours. Rates revert to . the standard obstetric and nursery charges if a woman and her baby remain longer than 24 hours. Although our fixed costs are the same as with our previous fee of $616 for . a short stay (24 hours), Reger said, we.project that in the long run the increased volume of patients using this service will make up for our fixed cost problem. We are Reger continued, looking into the possibility of an ambulatory department to handle many surgical and medical prowhere an overnight, cedures, hospital stay wouldn't be necessary. We have three goals to meet if we go into this type of service: 1) to keep the cost as low as possible while 2) meeting our operating expenses; and 3) to comply with new insurance recommendations which enone courage day stays to decrease medical costs.

' Dear Editor: In recent newspapers there was notification by the Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) that February 5 was the final date for trappers to obtain permanent possession tags from DWR area offices. If trappers foil to comply, their bobcat hides can be confiscated and sold - as well as a fine of $299 to the trapper and or a six month jail sentence. I wonder if the general public DWR racket in this trapping business? Let me enlighten you. I have trapped since I was a teenager and I am now considered a senior citizen, so I believe that I have some experience to back my claims. Before I can go out and set a trap, I must first obtain a $20 trapping license. Then I must apply to DWR for possession tags at $7.50 each and also sendproof that I have a bobcat permit. Bobcat permits andpossession available after tags arent October 15. The season runs from October 15 to January 31 but if a trapper doesn't fill all of his possession tags before December 31, he must then purchase another trapping license (another $20) to legally trap thru the other 31 days of the bobcat season. You cannot send dried pelts to a DWR office but must deliver them in person along with the lower jaw of the bobcat to obtain the metal permanent possession tags. Utah DWR made coffers more. I have asked DWR to let their conservation officers in the Bullfrog area have these tags in their; possession and for them to visit our area once a month during the bobcat season. This would allow trappers to obtain tags for their: pelts more conveniently but no . way will DWR make anything handy for the trapper. and New Mexico Arizona buyers have quit coming into this area because Utah officials make their business very expensive. Now hides and pelts are hard to market in Utah. If you purchase six to ten possession tags in 1982-8- 3 and are only able to catch two bob--, cats, DWR will not give you a refund on your tags nor will they let you use them for the next season. I keep vowing that I will not purchase a deer license a fishing license, a small game license, a trapping permit or any other form of restriction from DWR until some of these ridiculous laws are changed or modified. One would think that during these hard economic times, a hobby like trapping would not be so expensive. Thank you for your time and space to voice my opinion. I would appreciate hearing from other trapped trappers. SDarys F.
