Medical bills for those in the last stage of the disease - the period of 'full blown AIDS" which lasts for many a year and a half - can range from 50.000 to $150,000. For employee· with health insur- ance, that burden 1s shouldered by the insurance company. For em- ployees or patients without insur· ance, that burden ts eventually shouldered by the taxpayers, Ill· eluding busines.ses. "Government will put the train back onto the business.(,,~,•• said Veronica Gomez of the an Diego AIDS Project. Those amounts do not lake mto account costs of so-called "down t1m1>," the time that is lost lo sick days and decreased productivity Some with AIDS have "a month and a half of actual down time" from pneumonia! infection and do not have another bout for more than a year: others recover from pneumonia, contract another com• plication after only a couple mon- th, and never return to work, said Dr. Keith Vrhel, a doctor on Mer• cy's staff who specializes m treat- ment of AIDS patients How can employers deal with tlus? Speakers hastened to stress that Proposition 102. which is on today's ballot, is not the answer. If 102 passes into law, it would man- date that health providers report those who lest positive with the HIV virus. It might even take it one step further and allow insur- ance companies lo indiscrimmately lest potential enrollees for AIDS, said Vrhel. They then might deny coverage to those individual, who test positive. "The economic im- pact of 102 could easily be 1 hill1on a year," said Jackson. Accordmg to ye terday's speak- l'rs, the answer 1s education and implemenlat1on of a coherent and concise in-house policy on AIDS. "There is a lot of fear" in the workplace, noted Gomez. Only education will counter and ease fears amnng fellow employees and manager:,; about how the diseaae is contracted and whether and/or when it curtails an employee's ah1hty to work . For instance, the disease is not passed by casual contact. the type f contact most prevalent in the workplace. said \'rhel. Health care dollar~ h~

If an employee with AIDS, then, does not pose an endangerment to the health of other employees, companies which do not hire an applicant because he tested HIV positive risk breakmg federal and/or state discrimination laws and a potential lawsuit, said Kea ly. Several court rulings have upheld that the AIDS virus, and other contagious diseases, fall within the realm of "handi• capped," she said. For many with AIDS, work pro• ductiv1ty is undiminished, noted Vrhel "There is no significant im- pact m the early stages of the disease" on health or ability to work, he said. In fact, the early stages of the disease can go on for vears before a patient develops :.full blown AIDS."

Several organizations in San Diego are offering information on AIDS and how to deal with it in the workplace, including the Red Cross and the San Diego AIDS Project, said Gomez.
