I! “Ink Iiohcrty

OVITAWA. dim-ch l. - (OP) — Complete health services will cost Canadian adults $12 n year. plus a percentage of income for those in the income-tax paying classes, un- der a. revised’ health insurance plan submitted to the Commons social security committee today by f- ‘ Minister Mackenzie.

Compared with the plap on which the committee worked last session. the new one provides a simpler financial structure. lower cost to contributors and a scheme of Do- minion Government assistance to the provinces which takes into ac- count the uneveness of financial capacity in different provinces.

The changes also eliminate all contributions from employers and ease the levy on married men.

Mr. ftkcKenzie reported the altcmaticais were the result of con- tinned study by the Advisory Cam- mittee on health insurance which drew up the draft health insur- ance bills presented a year ago. In the interval between Psrliamentiry sessions, s, special finance comm- ittee spent three months working on the financial aspects.

The draft bill studied by the sac- ial security committee last year cal- led for contributions of $216 a year for all adults, with g plan for down- ward adjustment for persons of low incomes.

The new plan makes no change in the essential features of the or- iginal proposal- complete medical, dental, hospltai and drug services for all citizens; administration by thc provinces under provincial stat- utes and a. Dominion enactment authorizing financial assistance in providing thg seirvices Wand h Elisa sec __ all “or ii_c .2. p” ‘a " lsficsearilgh, cancer, tub- erculosis and mental illness foc

es.

‘rile flat contribution of $12 s year would be payable by every adult lesidient 1n a. participating province avg‘ the age 01' 10 years. Thus. it is proposed that a person with adult dependents pay the flat contribution for them.

The new draft also proposes that the province; make what arrange- ments they wish for abatement of payment of’ this contribution in cases of persons unable to pay but the cast of such abotements will be borne by the province.

In addition to the flat contribut- ion. sinqle pers with incomes of more than seen per year would pay three per cent of the income up to s. maximum of on and married persons with income; cf more than $1,200, five per cent up to a maxi- mum of s50. '

Thus, the maximum payment for a man and a wife with no adult dependents would be s75 a year.

Cvnnibutlons would be collected along with the income tax.

Ibderal financial contributions to provincial health services under last. year's draft were based on the principle of ,_ ,_ule.t-ion. In the new draft, they ore based on the average per capita cost of health services in all provinces less con- tributions collected from resident-ii

Thus. in effect the Dominion assumes the cost of health services for children under 16 and the ex- cess of the average cost of services to adults o‘ - the amounts collec- ted in oontn. .tions.

As n ti». lginal plan, it is pro- posed that "quslifled persons"- those entitled to receive benefits-

ichoose their own doctors and hos-

pitals within their own localities.

Mr. Mackenzie said the finan- cial committee whose recommen- dations were adopted found the S36 annual payment formerly proposed was too high and adiintment would be required for the majority of contributors. It also reported the provision for tributicns from em- ployers would foll mainly on small employers and in the case of far- merg using unpaid libel- would be "doubtful of collection in large par ."
