A number of affiliations and contracts for such services and facilities have been authorized on behalf of the Chicago, Peoria, Rockford, and UrbanaChampaign programs. T h e University's current contract with the federal government to develop an area health education system contemplates that the University, directly or through others, will develop graduate medical education in several regions of the state.

Under the proposed contract, the East Central Illinois Medical Education Foundation will make available approximately 2,880 hours of graduate medical education instruction and the University will pay the Foundation at the rate of $23.61 per hour, plus a fixed amount to assist in covering the rental cost of physical space, as well as clerical and administrative support to the individuals providing instructional services. The total payments by the University to the East Central Illinois Medical Education Foundation for the foregoing will not exceed $71,000 for FY 1974-75. Funds are available from the "Area Health Education System" contract, subject to approval of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. T h e Executive Dean of the College of Medicine has recommended approval.
