THE INSURANCE ACT.
MEETING OF MEDICAL MEN. (Received 8.15 a.m.) London, December 26. A meeting of 400 doctors on the chairman’s casting vote decided to accept the terms of the local Insurance Association. Panels of doctors are assured in East and South London, and a majority of the mining districts. Remarkable schemes occurred at a meeting of Middlesex doctors willing to work under the Act. They ran the gauntlet of a dozen Medical Association pickets who wore frock coats and silk hats, and urged them to keep outside the meeting.
The Insurance Commissioners announce that the doctors may charge higher fees than the Act allows if the insured patients agrees to pay the difference.
