pita) surplus up
o aIrn'r.','1 :'1 85, 00
After struggling through
-several years of unac-
customed deficits, it appears
the Wingham and District
Hospital will end its, 1982-83
fiscal year with a com-
fortable surplus on hand.
"The news is good news,"
Finance Chairman Robert
Pike told board members
last week.
The hospital has received
the supplementary funding
from the Ministry of Health
as requested, which adjusted
its base for the year upwards
by some $40,000 more than
budgeted.
In addition, expenses have
been somewhat less than
budgeted, thanks to the mild
winter and a drop in demand
for hospital services.
Activity in the hospital was
down last month, enabling it
to save some $18,000 on
salaries, and an additional
$7,000 was saved on lower
heating and snow removal
costs.
The result of all this has
been to boost the hospital's
surplus for the year to
$185,000 from a little over
$100,000 predicted earlier,
Mr. Pike reported.
"Barring any surprises,
we should be able to main-
tain that through till the end
of March."
Jack Kopas inquired
whether this year the
hospital will be permitted to
retain its surplus, and was
assured that is what the
Health Ministry has
promised.
In past years, hospitals
had to return any unspent
portion of their budgets to
the ministry. However, as
part of a new program to
encourage initiatives in
cutting costsand finding new
Three injured
in accident
A Teeswater man remains
in satisfactory condition in
the Wingham and District
Hospital following a head-on
collision on• Highway 86 just
east, of Wingham Sunday
afternoon.
Ed Wadel was driving one
of the cars, a 1973 Buick,
which collided with a 1979
Ford driven by George
Lawrence of Kitchener.
Both drivers wiere taken to
the hospital, as was Mrs.
Lawrence, a passenger in
her husband's car. Mr. and
Mrs. Lawrence were
released on Monday.
At the time of printing, no
other details of the accident
were available from the
police.

sources of revenue, the
ministry has announced
hospitals will be permitted to
retain this money.
After the meeting,
Executive Director Norman
Hayes explained it would be
a mistake to read too much
significance into this year's
surplus: Just because it
appears the hospital will
finish this year almost
$200,000 to the good is no
guarantee it could repeat the
performance next year.
"The reason we have a
surplus is that activity was
down in December, January
and February," he said.
"Traditionally January and
February have been busy
months for us."
"We can't count on that
happening another year."
He said he hopes the
ministry will realize this
when it looks at the hospital
budgets.
