DHEC reduc
(AP) - State health officials, who
canceled a program to provide South
Carolina hemophiliacs with lifesaving
blood components, now say additional
money may be available, a member
of a hemophilia group said.
Last month, the state Department
of Health and Environmental Control
announced it would end the program,
which provides expensive bloodclotting
components to hemophiliacs.
"DHEC has indicated it will retain
some assistance funds in the
program, although not at the same
level." said Peter Korn. who is
president of the state chapter of the
National Hemophiliac Foundation.
"I'm to meet with them Thursday to
discuss income limitations for participants,"
he said.
Korn said DHEC officials apparently
reconsidered the termination

expressed concern.
State Sen. J. Verne Smith, DGreenville
and Ihe author ef the bill
that created the program several
years ago, promised to see that it
continued after DHEC announced the
cancellation Sept. 17.
Since the announcement, some
patients were scrambling frantically
to locate the blood components that
would no longer be available through
the state's health department, according
to Korn.
"I have received several calls from
the families of hemophiliacs who are
frantic," Korn said. "They ask, 'What
do I do? Where can I get my
product?"'
Korn said the lack of advance notice
of the cut caused a great deal of
