- 9 -. 4, MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, I960 'Group Medical Practice Units Said Tripled : New Orleans-(Science Serv ice) Group medical practice units in the United States have tripled since 1946, with 1,154 groups in 1959 report ing as "multi-specialty" units. -. This means that three or more physicians provide serv ices in more than one medi ' cat field or specialty, with their combined income dis tributed according to a pre arranged plan. In a preliminary report to the American Association of Medical Clinics, Dr, S.

The study shows that 63.5 per cent of the multi-specialty groups are in the central states, 13 per cent in the mid dle and south Atlantic states, 7.3 per cent in the mountain slates, and 14.6 per cent in the Pacific stales. New Eng land has only 1.5 per cent of the groups. : The percentage of all prac ticing physicians in group practice is lowest in the New England and North Atlantic areas, and greatest in the Midwest. " Plan To Add More When the study was made in 1959, 6.21 per cent of all practicing physicians in the U.S. were in full-time group practice and 0.85 per cent more were part-lime .group practitioners. The multi-specialty groups reported they planned to add more than 1,000 additional full-time physician members in 1960. ' Dr. Marcus B. Goldstein of the Public Health Service col laborated In the preparation of both the 1946 and the 1959 report.
