AAIHDS: Accountable Care Organizations – A Game Changer?
Details: DGA Principal John Harris will be presenting at the 2010 Spring Managed Care Forum of the American Association of Integrated Delivery Systems (AAIHDS) in Orlando, FL.
Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are likely to transform healthcare delivery. The last change this important in how providers are paid was the introduction of DRGs. With Medicare’s significant volume driving this change, it can’t be ignored. Is your hospital, PHO, or IDS ready for this change? Should your organization become an ACO? What are the benefits and requirements?
Begin to answer questions that will be on the top of the agenda for you and your senior leadership. Participants will:
- Learn how ACOs will work
- Understand opportunities ACOs will offer providers
- Determine how to assess your organization’s preparedness and what steps you need to take
