3. Costs that have been incurred but billings have not yet been received or payment made, are estimated as follows: a. Handling and shipping excess medical items ~ to Honolulu (1 each container) b. Handling and shipping excess medical items to Kwajalein (4 each containers) c. Modification to the two containers for use as examination rooms d. Purchase Orders issued for medical supplies for Dr. Grant, which are in the delivery pipeline and not yet paid Total Estimated Cost Incurred GRANDTOTAL PRERAM COSTS FOR PERIOD 10/1/78-12/10/78 Recognizing the costs for the additional examination rooms and obtaining the excess medical items are one-time costs, it still appears that continuation of the ‘current rate of spending and with historically large costs of patients, yet to come, that the amount of $70,000.00 is insufficient to meet your program requirements through the remainder of FY 1979. It is strongly recommended that you seek means to get th~ funding level increased to at least $100,000. While none of us can predict this, the cost could be well in excess of $100,000 dependinq on the number of patients you decide must be treated in the U.S. If we can assist you further with the subject, please advise.
