A growing number of physicians are using organized labor to gain economic leverage. Hospital downsizing and autocratic managed-care plans have prompted more doctors to join the ranks of other professionals who carry union cards. While not a sweeping trend, interest in unions is growing--even among private-practice physicians who can't bargain collectively because of antitrust laws.
越来越多的医生正在利用有组织的劳工力量来获取经济优势。医院规模缩减和专制的管理式医疗计划促使更多医生加入了持有工会会员证的其他专业人员行列。虽然这并非一种普遍趋势,但对工会的兴趣正在增加——甚至在那些因反垄断法而无法进行集体谈判的私人执业医生中也是如此。
