Collection TitleCommonwealth Club of California records
Speaker
Wilbur, Dwight Locke
(1903-)
Date CreatedMarch 07, 1969
Description
Wilbur discusses increases in the cost of health care, especially in hospitals, and advocates for outpatient care as a viable alternative to reduce costs. Inflation, advances in medicine, and increased demand are the causes of the cost increases. Enhanced health insurance plans are needed to spread out the cost of health care. Additionally, he asserts that income tax credits for insurance premiums can serve as incentives to the public, encouraging them to purchase better health insurance.
