AMA rebuffs doctor labor union at San Francisco convention
At the AMA annual convention in San Francisco the House of Delegates referred a proposal to study collective bargaining for doctors to a committee, keeping the plan alive for now. President Hoffman Huntington condemned doctors unions as unethical, while incoming president Roth cautioned unions might be inappropriate unless many physicians become employees. The meeting also pressed a Price Commission dispute over 2.5 percent fee caps and debated ethics of turning patients over to police, ultimately preserving confidentiality unless community welfare requires disclosure.
