Argument of J. H. Benton, Before the Committee on Public Health of the Massachusetts Legislature (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
This book is a presented record of a debate held before the Massachusetts Legislature about a bill that would require the regulation of medical practice in the state. Until 1859, all examination and licensing of doctors was conducted by the Massachusetts Medical Society, a group tied to a singular school of medicine. However, this system was deemed ineffective by the legislature and the state went 25 years without passing any law regulating medical practice. The medical community organized several times to push for new legislation but were unsuccessful until 1885. This book concerns one such hearing, held in March of that year. Opponents of the bill pointed to the lack of consensus within the medical community, the high quality of care often provided by unlicensed practitioners, and the inherently subjective nature of medical practice. Proponents argued that regulation would protect the public from ignorance and malpractice. The debate also touched on the question of professional self-regulation and the government's role in protecting the public from dangerous or ineffective medical practices. The book provides a valuable glimpse into the history of medical regulation in the United States and into the ongoing debate about the proper role of government in overseeing the practice of medicine.
