When the government came to add up the bill, however, it obviously decided it was too high. As a result most hospitals are now being cut back. "The lateness of the government's decision to change the groundrules means that hospit- als may find that for seven months they have been spending money they aren't going to get. A 1% reduction slices hundreds of thousands of dollars out of the patient care programs of bigger hospitals. It becomes much more serious when you only have five months left in which to make a full year's saving. The Ministry has itself acknowledged that diffi- culty by saying that hospitals can take some of the money out of next year's budget if necessary", he said. ; hi "We won't know how adversely these cuts will affect services across the province un- til each hospital has been able to assess what its own budget allowance will permit. Recent province-wide wage settlements with service-worker unions, still to be approved by AIB, and upcoming negotiations with the nurses' union, will also have to be consider- ed by each hospital. , Some have already told us they will have to reduce beds and staff. "There are early indications as well from some hospitals that cuts in out-patient funds 'may force them to tell their physicians to make still greater use of private commercial laboratories for out-patient tests. If that happens the extra cost .ot OHIP and the taxpay -ers is certain to be far higher than any savings squeezed out of hospital out-patient budgets, and that doesn't make any sense at all to me. z "our Association is also hearing that a number of hospitals, particularly in the - north, are being faced with heavy cuts in ambulance funds and frankly I don't know what that might mean for services to people living in those communities," he said.
