San Francisco moved closer to becoming the nation's first city to provide health care coverage for all its residents when the city's board of supervisors unanimously approved a plan on July 18 that would give adults access to medical services regardless of immigration or employment status. The plan's estimated cost is $200 million a year. Financed by local government, mandatory contributions from employers, and income-adjusted premiums, the universal care plan's coverage would include the cost of checkups, prescription drugs, X-rays, ambulance rides, blood tests, and operations. But unlike health insurance, it would not pay for services obtained outside San Francisco.
