Description
The collection contains manuscripts,
correspondence and ephemera created by groups and individuals involved in research
on multiphasic screenings.
Background
The Inter-University Labor Education Committee created the Health Plan Consultants
Committee in 1953 in order to research and test viable health care programs for
laborers in the Los Angeles region. The Los Angeles County Medical Association
(LACMA) was one of the groups who participated in this endeavor. The Committee on
Multiphasic Screening was created to coordinate the physicians' activities regarding
the screenings. The group conducted health screenings of employees and members of
participating companies and unions.
