hospital from including the educational cost aspects of a
family practice program in the rates it charges patients,
confronting Franklin Square Hospital with an operating
deficit of $50,000 with no recourse but State assistance;
and

WHEREAS, The family practice program at Franklin
Square Hospital also faces serious difficulty if, at the
time of inspection for reaccreditation, it cannot create
an autonomous family practice center with a sufficient
number of supporting personnel and faculty, placing at
stake not only the residency program, but the urgently
needed services of family physicians for the 300,000
residents of this service area; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF MARYLAND, That
the Governor is requested to seek all possible means to
obtain State funds to save the vitally needed family
practice residency program at Franklin Square Hospital to
meet the operating deficit of the residency program and
to provide capital funds for an outpatient facility
within which an autonomous family practice center may
function for reaccreditation and patient purposes; and be
it further

RESOLVED, That copies of this Resolution be sent to
Governor Marvin Mandel, Comptroller Goldstein, State
Treasurer Tawes, and Dr. William Richel, Franklin Square
Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland.

Approved May 31, 1974.
