Many people know about the old setup, but do not know the facts regarding the new program, and therefore are confused.” _ CHARGE FOR SERVICES
Now, Dr. Drash said, although no charge is made for blood, there is a necessary charge for hospital services in cross-matching and administering blood. * The hospital has to provide skilled technicians, many supplies, and a laboratory in which we draw blood, process it, match it, and store it. Then there is the cost of administering it. The service charge to the patient is based on the actual cost of labor and supplies, and does not include any charge for the blood itself.”
