Health insurance for wage earners urged by New Jersey commission
A 1916 New Jersey commission urged universal health insurance for wage earners as wartime and postwar policy. The report, signed by Everett Colby and others, argues such coverage would improve health, reduce sickness costs, and aid reconstruction, with democratic management and state supervision. It notes existing support from labor and reform groups and calls for a system covering all regular workers with medical care and preventive health instruction.
