A Group Model HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) is a type of managed care plan where the HMO contracts with a multi-specialty group practice to provide healthcare services to its members.

This structure encourages coordinated care and cost management while promoting preventive services. Group Model HMOs often focus on delivering comprehensive services, including primary care and specialist access, under one roof.
