Plan Action

they will stage a job action next
month to protest insurance
company demands that they
pay almost 200 per cent more
for malpractice insurance.
Dr. Bernard Jacobs, presi-
dent of the GOO-member state
Society of Orthopedic Surgeons,
said Wednesday that doctors in
his group plan to refuse all but
emergency surgical cases dur-
ing a planned Jan. 13 march on
the state legislature in Albany.
Jacobs also said the Ameri-
can College of Surgeons would
meet in Chicago today to dis-
cuss the demands of the insur-
ance companies. One firm, the
Argonaut Insurance Co. of Men-
lo I'ark. Calif., claims it is los-
ing $00 million a year.
