We hope you enjoyed last month’s premier issue of the ACO Update and found the contents valuable for discussing future plans and strategies with your leadership team. Our goal is to bring you a new perspective from one of our children’s hospitals in each issue as well as a state overview. This time we’ve interviewed representatives from Massachusetts—a state who has been on the frontline and a model of reform for several years, as well as California—a state in financial flux with innovative approaches to reform. You will also find some key information about California’s lessons learned and how two constituency groups, the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) and several united physician groups, are identifying their role and standards in the development of ACOs.
I welcome your comments and suggestions as well as your questions. Please feel free to contact me directly.
