High court won't review San Fran health care plan

Supreme Court turns down business appeal of San Francisco health care program

The Supreme Court has rejected a business-led challenge to San Francisco's universal health care program that has enrolled more than 53,000 people who lacked health insurance.

The justices on Monday denied a challenge from the Golden Gate Restaurant Association of an appeals court ruling that upheld the program's requirement that employers help pay the bill or give their workers health coverage.
