Actually the wide spread emergence of company paid for health care in this country dates to World War II.  Wages were frozen, but fringe benefits such as paid health and life insurance were not.  Hence companies that needed to encourage people to work for them offered benefits in lieu of the higher pay they were forbidden to offer.
