"At all Druggists, = ; TOO MUCH FREE MEDICINE! For A Committee of Doctor Grticises the Hos- pital Service: Charity Said to Be Abused—Many Who Are Able to Pay Treated + Without Ci ‘Drs. Llewellyn Eliot, Charles G. Stone, F. B. Bishop, Rosier Middleton and Elmer Sothoron, comprising a committee created by the Medical Association of the District to inquire into the methods pursued by the various hospitals of tie city, has reported at great length upon the subject, and the consensus of their findings is that the local dispensaries and hospitals are abusing pub- lic charity. The association, in appointing the committee, declared that it did not in- tend to be*antagonistic to any of the ex- cellent medical institutions, but desired to protect its members from imposition. The essociation received the report November 16, and after eliminating many radical fea- tires, authorized its publication. The vol- uminous document recites the manner in which the committee proceeded with the inquiries, and then declares that “there is great abuse of medical charity in all the Fcspitals and dispensaries.” The commit- tee further declares that this abuse is espe- cially great in the central dispensary, mean- ing the Emergency Hospital, and asserts that the majority of applicants here and elsewhere are able to medical treatment. The course followed by the p. lee in removing sick and injured people taken from the streets to hospitals instead of to their homes is condemned, and the recommendation is made that non-residents be charged a small fee for treatment in hospitals, or be excluded from them. The Emergency Hospital is particulariy criticised by the committee, which asserts that it cannot be denied that it has long since ceased to be an institution of charity. “In past years,” says the report well as at the present time, this last in- stitution (the Emergency is referred to) has operated to the greatest injustice to both the community and the profession. Injus- tice to the community by educating thera that they are entitled to the services of the gentlemen attached, free of charge, at the same time it assists in pauperizing the ce- cipients of those services for which they could and should pay; injustice to the pro- fession by taking from their hands cases of sick and injured persons who rightfully belong to them, that the number of admis- sions to the hospital may be increased order to influence the appropriation mittee of Congr Cases have brought from Maryland and from Virginia for treatment—laparotomy, fractures, stab wounds, gunshot wot dislocations and others—and if published accounts are of any value in this matter, they have never been rejected; the records of the hospital will show this. Only recently a man was brought from Maryland; a railroad em- ploye, past villages where competent physi- clans, members of the Baltimore and Ohio relief service, resided, and of which ser- vice this man was also a member, any of whom would have willingly undertaken the care of the case. This man was entitled to the services of the company’s surgeon, and as his injuries of a serious chaz acter, he should have been sent to Provi- dence Hospital, where the railroad company Pays the expenses of treatment, but under the rules of the police department, as laid down by the Emergency Hospital, this man was not taken where he rightfully belonged, but was brought to its wards. Here was 4 flagrant injustice to many physicians along the line of the route. Here is another, J. W. Rice, whe resides at Bailey’s Cross Roads, Va., while digging a well, Saturday, was struck by a falling tub of dirt weighing thirty pounds. Rice was seriously injured internally, and was brought to the Emer- gency Hospital for treatment. These men died of their injuries. It is useless to multi- ply cases of abuse. In the opinion of your committee, the emergency department of any hosp'tal should be operated upon the same lines cf charity that would govern individual charity. That a man is sick or wounded does not constitute any moral, legal or financial right in his claim to the charity of a community; it does not entitle him to treatment without charge unless such a right is established in the first in- stance; neither does it tend to make him re- tain his self-respect, his independence of spirit nor his standing in the community for him to receive for nothing such services as those for which he can pay.” Discussed in Later Years. Continuing, the committee declares that “during late years the question of hospital and dispensary abuse has been discussed very extensively; so far with more or less relief in other cities. The remedy is only to be found in harmonious conferences of physicians attached to the institutions of charity. Without harmonious action on the part of the medical and lay directory of an institution, friction occurs and opposition to mutual benefits is developed. The first lesson to be learned is that the system of admission is radically wrong. This is ap- parent to any one who looks at fi . The present uncontrolled system of free ad- mission does a great injustice to the pro- fession and demoralizes the patients. T! hospital managers are not free agents neither are the medical men; they both have received the trusts from their prede- cessors, without question as to the abuses which they were continuing. The lay mem- bers cannot enforce economy and institute checks based upon business principles, since the staff would object to such an assump- tion of authority; the medical members cannot institute reform in admissions, as the lay members would think such reforms were based upon improper motives, but there no question that by mutual con- cessions abuse with which the can be corrected. ish, Antagonisms would re the profession and pauperis ynary medical would be check n its re The ele worl a. institution grievous hardship upon the young physi- cian, since it compels him to render servi gratuitously upon their board or wait idly to gain such experience as he needs. If the eieemosynary institutions are abolished, the management will be free to rem the tics of the given hospital and dispensary treatinent the local institutions during the year end- ing June 30, 1895, are given, showing thai a total of 54,180 were treated, including 15,- 150 by the physicians of the poor, and the ccmmittee declares that at least %) per cent of these were free cases. The committee concludes that there is great abuse of me fcal charity; that the majority of appli- cants at dispensaries and hospitals are able to pay a physician a fee, to be regulated by the amount of wages received, and that the working man is able to pay his physician. The Recommendations. The recommendations made by the com- mittee are as follow: First—That every institution require writ ten evidence, in the form of a certificate, from every applicant for free treatment at every institution, supported in part or in whole by the government, Second—That there be a central distri- bution bureau, where all applicants for free medical aid be required to apply, pre- sent their evidence, and receive the certi- ficate necessary to their admission to any chariteble medical institution, such certifi- cates to continue in force for thirty days. Third—That this bureau be in charge of a salaried medical officer, whose record of applic: nts shall be open for public inspec- tion under certain restrietions. Fourth—That cases of sick and injured persons found upon the streets, in the Stations, or elséwhere, which, upon inves- tigation, are proper subjects for treatment, be carried to their homes, and if they have no suitable homes, io the nearest hospital. Fifth—That cases brought from the states be refused treatment in the public wards of a hospital, and that such cases be com- pelled to pay for services or be excluded from the charity of the city. Sixth—That the physicians to the poor be paid larger salaries, that their number be Increased, and that they be required to attend more closely to their duties. Seventh—That, in future, the memers of the medica! staff of hospitals and dis- pensaries be elected for a term of not more than four years, and be ineligible fcr an immediate re-election. Eighth—That the Medical Association cf the District of Columbia oppose the further appropriation, either from Congress or the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, to any or all institutions which are found to abuse medical charity. Ninth—That the reputable members cf the profession be allowed to attend pa- tients in all of the hospitals of the city. paiients —= h use Stuart's Dyspepsia they digest the food be- » ferment and polson the that sour «| Tablets, bec fore it has time to so ‘or loss of a take Stuart's Dyspepsia ‘Tablets, because food muptl; ested creates a natuval desire for More dong loss of h uxe Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab- ron sense way; that ts, by digesting flesh-forming a and assisting the weak stomach in disposing. “4 For ees in stomach and bowels, causing dis- ‘tress, be ing and beadaches, use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tabl ed in such cases. lways ind palpitation the beart use Stuart's Dys- sending of ten cases is caused from a disordered For pw wbolesome For blood use Stuart's Dyspepsia ‘Tab- ure blood exn only result from digested. igestion and wt fd ed ve Seal and ac similar valuable Ok BY MICH. de.
