The Medical Group of Ohio

The Medical Group of Ohio (MGO) is a prominent Independent Physician Association (IPA) based in Columbus, Ohio, representing a network of over 2,000 physicians. Established in 1995, MGO operates as a clinically integrated network that bridges the gap between independent medical practices and large health systems, most notably OhioHealth. The organization focuses on value-based care initiatives, managed care contracting, and population health management to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. MGO provides its member physicians with administrative resources, data analytics, and collaborative opportunities to maintain independence while participating in large-scale healthcare delivery models. As one of the largest IPAs in the United States, it plays a critical role in the regional healthcare ecosystem by coordinating care across various specialties and primary care providers.
