AUDIT
ON
CARE
COSTS

VANCOUVER CP The
department said Tuesday
it plana audits to deter-
mine coats for long-term
cave provided by private
hospitala whose owners
aay they are losing
money.

Isabel Kelly, assistant
deputy minister, said
many private hospitals
argue they are not
making enough money
but the health ministry
has never investigated
their actual running
costs,

Las month, Pat
Shields, president of: the
British Columbia Private
Hospital Association, said
if the health ministry
desn’t increase its
.payments. to private
hospital owners, mem-
bers of his group might
leave the province's long-
term care program,

Ms Kelly said in an
interview that although
the health ministry
reco the right of
private hospitals to make
aprofit, they provide only
maintenance care and not
the therapy given to

tients in extended-care

pitals.

She also said there is a
shortage of extended-care
beds and the ministry is
trying to expand its home
care program to meet the
needs of the aged.

“We're building new
beds and upgrading
existing beds,” she sald,
“It will take at least three
years to solve the
problem completely.”
