Voluntary Medical Care Insurance in the United States
Abstract
According to the jacket of this work the book will answer two questions: 1. Is voluntary medical care insurance here to stay? 2. Will it eventually be made part of a broad national health program or succumb before legislation for compulsory health insurance? The book traces the history of voluntary insurance in the United States and the various methods of medical practice and concludes that voluntary medical insurance can serve selected economic groups only. Professor Goldmann is convinced that the idea of a nationwide program of voluntary medical care insurance is unrealistic, and he feels that in the long run the public will not be satisfied with prepayment plans which meet only a part of its total medical care needs and that physicians cannot be expected to be content with plans which disregard preventive services for the apparently healthy, do only half a job for the sick and impede the

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
