One of three health insurance plans making up the present administration’s 1974 proposal for national health insurance, the Comprehensive Health Insurance Plan. This plan would replace Medicare and provide health insurance coverage for persons 65 and older. Although many of the features of FHIP are the same as Medicare, there were changes made in the benefits structure and cost sharing provisions. Among the more significant changes are combining the hospital and medical portions of the benefits package, and adding drugs as covered service.
