Thelma Witmer: "The state owns the two hospital schools and so you're in a situation where actually the state allows its costs to rise and rise and rise and rise, and to be reimbursed for all those costs The bottom line is, if a private provider were running those two institutions, the state would not allow those costs to rise, rise, rise they would cap those rates." Mattson: "Iowa's not necessarily pioneering, there's other state ahead of us The ironic thing is, probably back in the mid-'60s to early '70s, Iowa was probably one of the top five states in the nation in terms of the cutting edge of services. We're way down the tube right now, probably right near the bottom." Continued from page A6 Do you think the state would be more interested in changing the system if it had to pay more of a share? Mattson: "Yeah, that's one piece of it but right now, the state probably doesn't have any more money to put in neither does the county and so no one has really set down for a long time and really taken a total look at the system instead of just a little tinkering. If I were the county or the state, and somebody said 'Let's do this I'd say, 'Well, show me (what it would cost) that what I'm hoping could come out of that state task force."
