WASHINGTON — America's 32 million elderly
would get major new prescription drug benefits un
der Medicare for about $8 a month as part of Presi
dent Clinton's health reforms, the White House has
told advocates for seniors.
The White House blueprint also will feature long
term care benefits for both the aged and young peo
ple with serious disabilities, emphasizing home -and
community-based care instead of institutions.
White House officials say seniors will be given the
same prescription drug coverage as everybody else
under the Clinton proposal, with a $250 annual de
ductible and 20 percent co
payments.
John Rother, legislative
director for the American
Association of Retired Per
sons, said Monday that
Clinton aides told him the
drug benefits will be worth
$32 to $35 a month on av
erage per senior citizen.
Seniors will be asked to
bear 25 percent of those
costs in the form of higher
monthly Medicare Part B
premiums
Pollack said the benefits will go to people who
have trouble with at least three of five essential daily
activities: getting out of bed, dressing, washing, us
ing the toilet and eating.
The services could include help with cooking and
cleaning, not just medical care, he said.
Medicare is going to "be under a lot of cost con
tainment pressure" under the Clinton health plan,
said Rother. But "it looks right now like a worth
while tradeoff."
"The key question is, is there system-wide cost
containment or is it just from Medicare and Medic
aid?" said Rother. "If it were just Medicare and
Medicaid, we'd be jumping through the roof."
Rep. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said, "Clearly the presi-

That premium, now $36.60, helps pay doctor bills
and other out-of-hospital expenses.
In addition, they would have to meet the $250 de
ductible and pay 20 percent of the cost of each pre
scription.
"Right now, a lot of seniors are forced to choose
between filling prescriptions and paying for food
and other necessities," said Ron Pollack, executive
director of Families USA Foundation, another advo
cacy group.
An administration official said the elderly would
be asked to pay 20 percent of the costs of the long
term care benefits on a sliding scale.
Those benefits will be phased in over five years,
with states getting grants to furnish the services.
Rother said he was told the long-term benefits
would be worth $80 a month and would cost the el
derly roughly $20 a month.
The emphasis will be on services in the home,
adult day care centers and other community facilities
to help people retain their independence.

While Clinton plans to require most Americans to
buy their health coverage through new regional al

Law could give blacks
some control of Africa
The Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Negotiators agreed Tuesday
on a draft law that would give blacks a role in running the country
for the first time in South Africa's history.
The bill would set up a Transitional Executive Council, a multi
party body that would assume joint control of some functions with
the white-minority government even before multiracial elections in
April. It would include members from Nelson Mandela's African
National Congress and other black groups.
ANC National Chairman Thabo Mbeki said Tuesday night that
approval of the transitional council by Parliament would allow the
ANC to call for all remaining international economic sanctions to
be lifted. He said such an announcement was likely by the end of
the month.
The draft law would severely inhibit President F.W. de Klerk's
power to act independently, requiring him to consult with the tran
sitional council on security matters and any major changes to laws.
The draft law and three others approved by negotiators now go
to Parliament, which convenes a special session next week.
Approval is expected because de Klerk's governing National
Party supports the plan and controls the dominant white chamber
of Parliament.
The panel would comprise members of all groups that have tak
en part at any time in the multiparty negotiations that began in De
cember 1991. It would consist of a main council and seven subcom
mittees in such areas as law and order, finance, foreign affairs and
the status of women.
Some groups opposed the measure Tuesday or have boycotted
the talks altogether.
ANC Secretary-General Cyril Ramaphosa, the group's chief ne
gotiator, called opposition to the transitional council "inconsequen
tial" and said, "It won't stop us."
Pro-apartheid whites and some conservative leaders of black
homelands oppose a transitional council and election. They fear
domination by the ANC, the nation's leading black group, in a
post-apartheid government and want guarantees of autonomous
homelands where they can govern themselves.
The right-wing Conservative Party and Zulu leader Mango-
suthu Buthelezi, head of the Inkatha Freedom Party, have warned
of civil war if the plans for a transitional council and election pro
ceed.

He plans to take the same mes
sage to the White House on
Wednesday, when he is sched
uled to meet President Clinton
and Secretary of State Warren
Christopher.
The beleaguered leader of
Bosnia's Muslim-led government
wants a peace plan that he rejecfl
ed in Geneva last week modified,
so Muslims can have secure a®
cess to a port on the Adriatic Sea,
now controlled by Croats.
Izetbegovic is also seeking an
other step to get a better deal:
moving the talks to New York so
the Security Council can provide
more direct guidance to interna
tional mediators Thorvald
Stoltenberg and Lord Owen.
The negotiations among
Bosnia's Muslims, Serbs and
Croats broke down last week
when Serbs and Croats refused to
give the Muslims 4 percent more
land.
Izetbegovic believes that land
is necessary to make the shrunken
territory his government controls
economically viable.
Bosnian Serbs began grabbing
territory after Bosnia's majority
Muslims and Serbs voted to se
cede from Serb-dominated Yu
goslavia last year.
In a partition plan proposed
during the talks, Bosnian Mus
lims, who comprised 43 percent of
the prewar population, were to
get 31 percent of the divided
country, Serbs 52 percent and
Croats 17 percent.
Izetbegovic blamed mediator
Thorvald Stoltenberg for not de
fending principles set out in the
U.N. Charter and Security Coun
cil resolutions and for rewarding
ethnic cleansing, in which one
side ousts people belonging to an
other faction from their land. I
Human rights monitors saj
Bosnian Serbs have used ethni(
cleansing the most during th<
war.
■'The Security Council shoull
ask Mr. Stoltenberg to explaj
this," Izetbegovic told the
member nations, according tc
text released afterward.
He also asked the council to
a deadline for removing Seri
heavy artillery besieging Saraji
the Bosnian capital, and to re
a threat of air strikes, which
never been launched.
Speaking to reporters,
Bosnian president declare|
readiness to resume the
talks unconditionally. ^hbietoqmiijyini
