UNCOLLECTIBLE HOSPITAL ACCOUNTS

The Board adopted the following resolution

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that the Hospital Accounts Committee be and it is hereby authorized to charge off as
uncollectible accounts Schedules 474, 477 and 478, aggregating $24,046.24, as recommended by them

Members requested that the wording of this resolution be adhered to in future resolutions
on uncollectible accounts so that the Board's action would not have the effect of absolutely
cancelling the accounts. The opinion was also expressed that efforts should continue in the
General Assembly to get the counties to contribute a reasonable portion of the costs of
indigent patients
