§ 21505. Charges for medical services
§ 21505. Charges for medical services
The corporation may charge a reasonable compensation for providing medical and surgical services or may provide those services without charge. Amounts received under this section shall be used to carry out the purposes of the corporation.
(Pub. L. 105–225, Aug. 12, 1998, 112 Stat. 1296.)
The words “may charge” are substituted for “it shall be lawful for the said corporation to demand and receive” to eliminate unnecessary words. The words “medical and surgical services” are substituted for “such care, sustenance, professional treatment, and other services” to eliminate unnecessary words. The words “to carry out the purposes of the corporation” are substituted for “be applied to the uses and benefits of the said corporation” for consistency.
