Philip A. Hart, the subcommittee chairman, to comment, "Maybe the high cost of hospital care is due to reasons that we hadn't anticipated when the hearings started."

John G. Veneman, under secretary of health, education and welfare, told the Senate Finance Committee that the fee structures could be negotiated, as proposed in a finance committee study of Medicare and Medicaid costs, made public earlier this month.

Failing that, he said, the ceilings will be imposed, a step sure to stir the wrath of the nation's doctors. Meanwhile, Congress heard testimony that "fast buck profiteers" were making millions of dollars in hospital stock deals. It was not immediately clear whether the administration could limit the fees on its own or whether congressional action would be required. An administration official said that "it certainly would be preferable to have Congress write it into law." The present system of financial reimbursement, which pays "reasonable and customary charges," Veneman said, has not "provided opportunity for major cost control efforts." Medicare and Medicaid costs have doubled since the programs went into effect four years ago, while Medicare care has risen at twice the cost of living with hospital costs rising even more rapidly. The Senate antitrust monopoly subcommittee of Judiciary Committee, which is investigating skyrocketing hospital costs, yesterday heard two hospital administrators assail the activities of hospital chains.

Joe S. Greathouse director of the Vanderbilt University Hospital in Nashville, charged that the chains did not provide a full range of services. John It. Gadd, executive director of the Lee Memorial Hospital, Fort Myers, complained that the chains were "skimming off high-paying patients while dumping indigent patients on general institutions." Officials of the Hospital Post, the legislature's chief adviser on money matters, proposed that Reagan's budget for mental health be beefed up by $500,000.

"That is a fact of life," Legislative Analyst A. Alan Post reported. "This is a recognized problem." During a briefing on Gov. Ronald Reagan's proposed $6.5 billion budget, Post said when patients are discharged for treatment at local clinics and hospitals often their prescribed medical program is inadequately supervised.

"What has happened In the community program is that you put him (a patient) in a facility and forget him," he charged.
