A private Of the three hospitals, KW will likely have the Jargest fluctuation between budgeted and actual opâ€" erating costs because of its preâ€" sent $16,800,000 expansion and renovation program. For 1970, the commission has approved tentative operating budâ€" gets of $6,788,304 for Kâ€"W Hosâ€" pital; about $5,150,000 for St. Mary‘s and $3,742,341 for South Waterloo. Settlement rates for 1969 have not yet been received by the hosâ€" pitals. But each hospital‘s costs will have to be approved by the comâ€" mission at the end of 1970. If a variance between budgeted and actual expenses is found an adâ€" justment or settlement is made by the commission.

These rates will stand for patients throughout the year, a hospital spokesman said. While Kâ€"W Hospital will still have the highest rate of the three hospitals, its tentative 1970 rate of $54.70 is less than a four perâ€" cent increase over last year‘s $52.80. At St. Mary‘s Hospital in Kitâ€" chener, the 1970 standard ward rate will be $43.90, compared to its 1969 rate of $41. Galt‘s 267â€"bed South Watprloo Hospital reports the highest rise for 1970 rates, with a daily ward rate set at $47.35, up $4.60 from last year.
