PAGE THREE :1 HELP IN BATTLE Controversy Between "Soc ialized" Medical Treat ment And "Rugged Indi vidualism" Near Climax. LOS ANGELES (UP) The fight to maintain medical aervlce at low cost for tho salaried classes may be taken to the civil courts, Dr. H. Clifford JLoos, co-founder of the Boss-Loos Cltnlo of Los Angeles, naa told the United Press. The controversy between "aocial lzed" medical treatment and "rugged Individualism," ! being brought to a head here In the controversy be tween the Ross-Loos Clinic and the Los Angeles County Medical associa tion. The clinic has been furnishing complete medical oare to aeveral thousand patients, Including hospit alization, at the rate of 82 a month. Economic Issues The Issues seem to be largely eco nomic. No question of professional ability within the clinic has been raised. The medical association recently expelled the clinic's physicians on the ground that the clinic had sol icited patlenta and had sanctioned complimentary articles In house or gans published by groups subscrib ing to the clinic, the latter coming under the professionally unethical head of "advertising." Drs. Ross and Loos deny the charges categorically- The clinic has at present some 15,000 "contract patlenta," many of whom also contract for the care of their dependents. The complete ros ter of oatlents la estimated at 30,- 000 to 45,000. It has grown to Its present proportions from an experi ment launched In 192B. Fllty.-iive au time and part-time physlciana are employed, and as many more nurses, orderlies and clerical attendants. The founders are Dr. Loos, a sur geon who retired Just prior to 1929 and Dr. Arnold E. Ross of Canada fellow of the Royal College of Sur- geona of London and of Edinburgh and of the American College of Sur geons. The Plan The clinic will accept groups of from ten persons up. When a group la signed, all members are entitled to the service, regardless or tne pnys- leal condition of any one member (exceptions: drug addiction, Insanity and alcoholism). The well pay for the sick. The healthy are encouraged to visit the clinic early In Illness, so that In a sense they pay the -clinic to keep them well. As an example of service, a woman ' can get a thorough course of pre natal care, confinement hospitaliza tion and delivery, post-natal care and Instruction in the care of the child at the basic rate. Beginning in a small building, the clinic now occupies a modern four Btory building, crowded with labora tories, libraries, operating rooms and offices. Hospitalization up to three months per patient per year Is of fered within the basic rate. The Clinic's Side Dr. Loos, who, Incidentally, Is a brother of Anita Loos, the writer, said In reference to the controversy: "We are charged with advertising, which we deny. We think, for that matter, that we don't need to ad vertise. Obviously (I cite our growth) we are filling a great need among modestly-salaried persons. We don't feel that we are encroaching upon the revenues of individual physicians, for the reason that the great major ity of our patients are not economic ally able to contemplate private care, particularly surgery. "The house organs of aeveral of our patlenta' groups have printed complimentary articles, which we are accused of Inspiring, or sanctioning. This la not true." The clinic Is appealing to the State Medical association from the county association's ruling, and ex pects to be refused. "We may then have to go to court to vindicate ourselves," Dr. Loos said. "We feel that an exemplary verdict n: one dollar from a Jury of laymen would tend to prove our case." Dr. Philip Stephens, president of the County Medical association, would not discuss the matter for publication.
