Union would be my description. I know it is an association.
My point was more that in our health system its built first to serve those in it, those who run it, and only afterward those who are supposed to benefit from it.
I don't think doctors or nurses sit around thinking 'screw the patient' or anything. Or that the bureaucrats get their rocks off denying care. Individuals want to do the right thing. But I think the organizations get stuck in self interest more often than not.
