aThis table shows estimates of regressions between practice motivation and care (services and costs per patient). Estimates are based on ordinary least square regressions with robust standard errors. The column numbers express the included controls: (1): no controls, (2): control for who they serve and how many they serve (see Table 1 for an overview of included variables). Standard errors are in parentheses
*p < 0.05
