when you call Southwestern
Bell Telephone to Inquire about
leased equipment.
Also, by the end of the year, all
Southwestern Bell Telephone
customers will notice a change
in the way their monthly tele-
phone charges are listed. Since
different Bell companies will
provide different services begin-
ning In January, your monthly
bill will be broken out accordingly
— with each suppliers charges
listed on separate pages.
We want you to know
As always. If you have ques-
tions about these or other
matters related to your tele-
phone service, feel free to
contact me. Or. you can call
Southwestern Bell Telephone’s
toll-free number for divesture
Information — 1 800 555-5000
— anytime between 8:30 a.m.
and 4:30 p.m.. Monday
through Friday.
In addition, complete details
about various divestiture-
related issues can be found in
the insert which accompanies
your monthly telephone bill.
At Southwestern Bell Tele-
phone, we believe the more you
know about what will and won t
change with divestiture, the
easier this transition to a new
era in telecommunications will
be for you.
One of the questions I get
from time to time is. "What
options are available to me on
the installation of inside wir-
ing?" Good question. Right now
there are three options available
to the residence customer. First,
a customer can provide his own
wiring. Second, a customer can
have a contractor Install the wir-
ing. Third, we ’ll be glad to
provide and maintain the wir-
ing and bill you accordingly.
Countdown to
divestiture
it’s now less than two months
away... “it " being the break-up
of the Bell System. On Jan. 1.
1984, Southwestern Bell and 19
other Bell operating companies
will formally sever ties with
AT&T in the largest separation
in American corporate history.
No longer will Southwestern
Bell and its 19 sister companies
be affiliated with AT&T. No
longer will the oft-used term
"one Bell System" be applicable.
Instead, the Bell operating
companies will be reorganized
into seven independent regions
(with Southwestern Bell making
up one of those seven).
What this means to you is
that beginning Jan. 1, thevari- ’
ous telecommunications ser-
vices you've previously received
under one roof will come from
two or more companies.
Southwestern Bell will pro-
vide local phone service, limited
long distance service and vari-
ous other offerings such as
Custom Calling services, public
telephones, mobile phone ser-
vice and white and yellow page
directories.
AT&T, on the other hand, will
offer long distance service and
terminal products, will retain
its manufacturing and research
arms (Western Electric and
Bell Labs), and will assume
ownership of all Bell-owned
equipment presently being
leased to customers on a
monthly basis.
In preparation for the break-
up. we at Southwestern Bell
Telephone will be making
changes in certain operational
procedures before the end of the
year so that "all systems will be
go" come Jan. 1.
This phase-In will give you
an opportunity to learn about,
understand and ask questions
concerning new procedures
before they're permanently
in place.
Here is one example of how
we're preparing for a post-
divestiture environment:

(RN., N.P.) are registered
nurses with training beyond
basic nursing education.
Nurse practitioners perform
physical examinations and
diagnostic tests, counsel
patients, and develop
treatment programs. Regu-
lations regarding their
duties vary from state to
state. Nurse practitioners
may work independently,
such as in rural clinics, or
may be staff members at
hospital and other health
facilities. Medicare will help
pay for services performed
under the supervision of a
doctor.
Registered nurses (R.N.)
may have two, three or four
years of education in a
nursing school. In addition
to performing bedside nurs-
ing duties, such as giving
medicine, administering
treatments, and educating
patients, R.N.’s often hold
supervisory and teaching
positions in hospitals,
long-term care facilities,
and colleges. R.N.’s also
work in doctors’ offices,
clinics, and community
health agencies. Medicare
does not cover private duty
nursing. It helps pay for
general nursing services by
reimbursing hospitals,
skilled nursing facilities,
and home health agencies
for part of the nurses’
salaries.
Registered dietitians
(R.D.) provide nutritional
care and dietary counseling.
Most of them work in
hospitals or doctors’ of-
fices, but some have private
practices. R.D.’s complete
a bachelor’s degree and a
internship (or an approved
coordinated undergraduate

care generally will not pay
