The Union of Healthcare (German: Gewerkschaft Gesundheitswesen) was a trade union representing healthcare workers in East Germany.
The first Union of Healthcare was formed in 1949, when the Free German Trade Union Federation decided to split healthcare workers out of the Industrial Union of Public Companies and Administration.
In addition to industrial activities, the union became involved in sports associations, their names starting with "SV Medizin".
Its new president, Siegmar Treibmann, argued that it should merge into the German Salaried Employees' Union, but the majority of the union voted instead to join the Public Services, Transport and Traffic Union (ÖTV).
Treibmann resigned, and the union dissolved itself in October, recommending that members transferred to the ÖTV.
