The San Francisco Labor Council has approved a unique city-wide, medical program which may deeply influence union health and welfare patterns in many other cities. As prospects grow dimmer for national health insurance in the near future, union leaders put increasing stress on their own medical-care arrangements for members through negotiated contracts with their families live, with a large centrally located Labor Health Institute to provide special services not available in the local centers. Centers would be staffed by groups of general physicians and specialists practicing teamwork medicine.
