ACOs Here to Stay

"ACOs are an inexorable part of the 'fee-for-value train' that has left the station--they're here to stay," Perez told the audience. "The future will look like a patchwork of multi-payer ACOs, involving both public and private payers. This allows the benefits and costs of the ACO to be spread across a broader population and, without cost shifting, helps reduce societalcosts of healthcare, not just the costs for Medicare and Medicaid."

Video Series Frames Issues, Focuses On Key Areas For Taking Action

MedeAnalytics' "Two-Minute Drill" videos, supported by graphics illustrating key concepts, are designed to provide busy executives with useful insight into complicated issues. The video series is part of MedeAnalytics' continuing service to healthcare industry executives and policy professionals attempting to understand and plan for the impact of the myriad legislative requirements affecting healthcare.

"In two minutes or less, we're framing salient issues that could really impact healthcare organizations' bottom lines, and we do this in a way that orients viewers and helps them focus on key areas for taking action," says Perez.
