Abstract
The number of physicians organized in multispecialty group practices is growing. Research does not suggest that such practices will achieve economies of scale or economies of scope. Rather, the primary economic advantage to multispecialty group practice may be its ability to coordinate the process of care in a managed care setting, a process for which relatively large practices may be necessary.Keywords
