MR. LLOYD GEORGE’S INTENTIONS. As we are going to press we have received personal assurances from the Chancellor of the Exchequer as to his intention with regard to the capitation payment to Mr. Lloyd medical men under the insurance scheme. sum for has a of the £4,200,000 George provided provision of medical attendance including drugs, dressings, and appliances used in domiciliary treatment. The calculation is that this will permit the average payment of 6s. per head for each a capitation fee estimated at person insured for medical attendance and the drugs, dressings, and appliances used in domiciliary treatment. The amount will be increased on the advice of the Central Insurance Office in districts where the Insurance Commissioners are advised that sickness is excessive. In addition he has made arrangements to provide a sum of f.l,OOO,OpO annually for the maintenance of sanatoriums, and in that way removes from the scope of domiciliary treatment a considerable proportion of phthisical patients who would otherwise make serious calls upon the sum available for domiciliary medical attendance and provision of drugs. He has also provided an annual sum of £1,500,000 for maternity benefit, and out of this it is roughly estimated that onethird will be paid to members of the medical profession.
