Doctors Lag Behind the Times
Medical Care Scandal Grows

is reflected not only in the large number Of
articles and books critical of the professions
policies. II can be seen in the growing number
of malpractice suits against physicians, which
broke all existing records last year. II is on
view in the spread and success of cOmprehen-
sive medical plans such as the labOr-suppOrted
Health Insurance Plan of New York. 1t is APP
parent in angry letters to the editors, and even
in Jokes and cartoons of which the doctor seems
invariably to be the butt.
ats Cheaper to Die" paints good picture of
such widespread and insidious practices as fee
splitting, kckbacks, incompetent or unnecessary
surgery and commissions from diagnostic labo-
ratories. AS specialists take over larger proper
ton of medical practice the use of fee-splittng
gimmicks between specialist and general practi-
toner is becoming ever more common Another
device being used more and more by doctors as
a greater number of patients is covered by insur-
ance is the hiking of fees over what is covered by
the insurance. patient may, for instance, be
protected by surgical insurance which pays $500
for certain operation. The physician, knowing
that the patient is covered for $500, will send a
bill for $3.50 on the assumption that the patient
can afford to pay the balance, whereas he would
have charged only $500 had the patient not had
insurance at all.
Whatever else they say, writer's in this field
make one unmistakable point and the evidence
for it is overwhelming: the imbaIance in the
doctor-patient relationship must be redressed.
The consumer must be given far larger voice
in the economics of medicine.
The medical profession has not kept up with
the shifting social and economic conditions which
dictate change in the traditional fee for service
system. The costs of medical care are now too
steep. Patients are no longer willing to accept
calmly whatever fee the physician sees fit to
impose. The abuses of the system have been too
many and are by now too well documented, and
the impression gained by the public of doctors as
men who are willing to become rich through the
misfortune of others is too well ingrained to be
easy to dispel.

The Union
Contract And
Safety
BY GEORGE BROWN

Every year since shortly after
the end of World War II nearly 2
million American workers have
suffered on-the-job injuries ser
ious enough to keep them from
their daily employment.
For about $4,000 of them each
year injury means working days
are over, for their injuries are
fatal. In addition, about 5000 are
permanently disabled. There is ira
gic economic loss too - some So
billion q year in wages alone for
the workers, almost countless mil
lions of man-days in production.
Last year was no better than
usual. In fact, it was a little
worse than 1858, a reflection at
least in part of recovery from the
sharp drop in employment that
marked the recession and resulted
in a lowering of the exposure
rate" Preliminary estimates Of
the Labr Departments Bureau Of
Labor Statistics are that 1910, 900
workers suffered injuries in 1859
serious enough to keep them from
their jobs for at least one day after
the day they were hurt. In 1863
there were 100000 such injuries.
The preliminary industrial accident
rate for 1859 was 11.9 for each
1 million employe manhours work
ed, an increase of one full point
over 1858.
The trade union movement re-
CARDS these grim figures with the
seriousness they deserve. After
all, it doesn't profit a union much
to win good wages and pensions
for a member if he isn't going to
be around to enjoy them.
