Em - MAJORITY REPORT. 149 er ——RCO mothers who in varying degrees do not or cannot meet their difficulties by purely individual effort. THE MEDICAL AND THE MAINTENANCE HLEMENTS. 336. It may at this point be of interest to submit some details of the cost of an extended maternity service which have been provided for our use. There are two main groups of elements which have to be considered. In the first place there are the medical services, with a cash payment to the woman to enable her to buy any necessaries and comforts incidental to the occasion. In the second place there is the provision of main- tenance for the working mother and her child during a specified period before and after the confinement on the condition that remunerative work is given up during these periods. CosT oF THE MEDICAL PROVISION. 337. The average number of confinements in respect of which Maternity benefit is payable is estimated to be 717,500 per annum, of which 517,500 are cases of uninsured women. The first of the new requirements would seem to be provision for medical €Xamination, ante-natal and post-natal. An outside fee for these examinations would be 5s. each (10s. in all). It is open to argu- ent whether, as regards insured women, these particular ser- Vices are not tio a great; extent included within the scope of the medical benefit to which the women concerned are entitled, and are therefore covered by the obligation which at present rests on the insurance practitioner. For the purpose of our estimate We have treated them as new services, but this must not be taken as an expression of opinion on the content of the present Medical benefit in relation to the class in question. 338. The second requirement is the provision of ordinary Medical care during the period of pregnancy. Apart from attendances which would be necessary in all cases as part of the ante-natal treatment, the risk of ordinary attendances being fequired during pregnancy is clearly higher than it would be ut Other times. Hven if the doctors were prepared to undertake this New service on a contract basis it cannot be assumed that they Would be willing to accept payment on the basis of the ordinary Capitation rate applicable to insured persons generally. The offer of free medical attention in the ante-natal period might be ex- bected to result in consultation with the doctor regarding Pregnancy at an earlier date than is otherwise usual. Assuming that on the average the doctor would be informed at the end of the Second month, the payment on the basis of a capitation fee of 9s. a Year would be 7/12ths of this amount, or 5s. 3d.
