Troutman: I believe that the Lowrance people were projecting
a 13% increase in hospital costs for the first several years.
What is Iredell Memorial projecting? That really, I think,
is the crux that we peed to know. What is it going to cost
patients to use the hospital? What is the new facility going to
cost per day?
Nunnery: Mr. Troutman, I think what you want to know is
what is the additional cost. What will be the additional
cost to the patient for this? It is $32 per patient day. Now
that is not room rate; that is S32 scattered through ancillary
services and room rate.
Troutman: What per cent is that?
Nunnery: 14%. Our projection is 14%. That $32 would be
the same through the 20 -year period.
Ostwalt: Mr. Nunnery, let me ask you if I may, the 13%
increase would be for 1983, could we expect a 13% increase in
1984, and a 13% increase in 1985?
Nunnery: *1r. Ostwalt, at Iredell Memorial we project a 14%
increase, but that is correct. That would be the amount we
Ostwalt: Each year of the fereseabie future?
nunnery: Yes, sir.
Campbell: Your are talking about originally 14% and then
hold it there, or you're not going to increase it
Nunnery: The, for example, if during this next year,
next year,'s budget would be approximately 14% higher than this
year's budget, and then the following, year 14% higher than next
year's budget.
