Med Center may get more funds

The University of Kansas Medical Center may receive more money next year than
The Kansas Senate Make and Means
Committee approved a $129 million budget for the Med Center for the 1979-80 school year. $2.2 million more than the Kansas House recommended this

Of the $11.2 million, $44.4 million would come from state funds. The remainder would be raised through patient fees and federal revenue funds.
James Lowman, dean of the School of Medicine, said yesterday that he was in agreement with the president.
"The budget sounds fantastic," he said. "I am surprised by the increase."
Richard Von Ende, executive secretary for the University, also said he was pleased with the work.
The budget now will go to a joint conference committee so the House and Senate can resolve any differences in their proposals.
Von Ende and Lowman said they were optimistic that the joint committee would approve the increase recommended by the Senate.
Lowman said, "The House did give us more money than the governor recommended. At that stage, they were obviously too good." He's hopeful we'll get the additional funding."
In January, Gov. John Carlin proposed a $110.2 million budget for the Med Center. The House this month approved a $110.6 million budget.
The Senate's proposed budget provides $1.8 million to buy equipment for the new Bell Memorial Hospital, scheduled to open in July.

The increase would help retain nurses, the budget report says. Med Center officials have said about 45 percent of the nurses quit each year.
The official, David Waxman, executive vice chancellor, said, "It's very, very important. If we don't get the equipment, we won't make the revenue."
The $1.8 million would be used to buy automated laboratory and billing equipment.
