  Estimates are provided in this report on the utilization of non-Federal short-stay hospitals by in-patients, excluding newborn infants, during 1970. The data are based on information abstracted for the Hospital Discharge Survey from a sample of about 205,000 hospital records of patients discharged from a national sample of 395 hospitals which participated in the survey. Data are presented on the number and rate of discharges and of days of care; on average length of stay of patients discharged, by age, sex, and color of patients; and by geographic region, bed size, and type of ownership (control) of the hospitals.
