Mr. Chairman, I don't believe we get a special rate. I know at one time the Department of Health attempted to get a special rate with excursion fares and, as a result, some patients complained they were treated differently than other patients. I don't believe we do at this point in time. However, I would think that with the amount of travel we do, we should try to get special rates without taking away the benefits of the travel the patient receives.
