An Increase from $3.80 to $4.10 per day was voted by the Bourd ' ' of Control. Daily payments for the Beatrice State Home will'" be raised only five cents,' from $1.70 to 1.75 for daily care. " The increase in rates Is due to; rising costs of operations in tho,n institutions, Jack Cleavenger. chief accountant for the Board... of Control stated. These costs " are figured each month and payments are adjusted perlodli cally. Under Nebraska law, opera- tional costs for each patient. In , the institutions are paid for by the county from where they. are,, commuted. Cass County has 37 patients, in s(,ate mental hpsPj, tals. Extra cost to this county will be about $ll-a.da,y;" In addition to the mental In stitution patient list, Cass Coun ty also has 27 patients confined,., to the Beatrice State Home,'. which; will add another $1.33 per ; day to tofal costs. . This Is the third increase In ' fees since December 1. 1955. Before that date the rate was $2.90 a day in mental hospitals: and $1.50 at Beatrice.
