Show Millard County Progress, Fillmore, Utah 84631, Friday, June 11, 1982 Page 2 REPUBLICAN CONVENTION Cont. from Front page Who Hikes Hospital Costs? By Paul Harvey Hospital costs increased another last year to a new record high; why? Who is hiking our hospital costs? Ive been searching for him; Im close to finding him. Everytime the monthly "cost of living report comes out, up there at the head of the list of costs increasing fastest are "medical treatment" and "utility bills. I examined first the escalating cost of electricity and discovered, sure enough, in a fairly representative city the household electric bill has gone up over the past 35 years 700 Holy Mackerel, thats terrible! Until you read the fine print. Actually, in that city, the cost of electricity per thousand kilowatt hours, has not increased at all. The cost has increased seven times because the household is using seven times more electricity. That household could reduce its cost of living tomorrow if it would shut off its air conditioner and its refrigerator and its electric shaver and its hair dryer and its deep freezer and its washer-drye- r and its electric can opener and its dishwasher and its night lights and its radio and its television.... But it won't. Luxuries have become necessities. We'll hurl epithets at the electric company when it is not they but us are increasing our electric bills. And we're not about to cut it out. Is it true in hospitalization too? Americans are now spending 274 billion dollars a year for medical care. Of that 274 billion most goes to doctors and therapy, only 110 billion goes to the hospital. Nonetheless, this is an enormous increase over what we paid for medical treatment a dozen years ago. Would we go back? Back to before sophisticated technology which makes possible pacemakers and transplanted organs and synthetic hip joints and mechanical pancreas and artificial larynx and stereoscopically restored human eyesight. 19 1 - UTAH ARTS FESTIVAL Continued from Front Page stop performances daily, highlighted by the Utah Symphony, The Repertory Dance Theatre, Ballet West, the Utah Opera Company and the Dance Company.
