Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This study examined returns to scale for the production of health services in college and university student health centers. Estimation was done using the Cobb-Douglas production function. The results of this study present evidence that supports the hypothesis of decreasing returns to scale across the set of sampled observations of student health centers.
