Pre-Conference Sessions

A “Deep Dive” on Accountable Communities of Health

This two-hour session will be a deep-dive, focused conversation about Accountable Communities of Health. We want the conversation to focus not solely on the Demonstration, but how ACHs fit in the bigger picture of the health system. We’re posing a problem statement of “If we don’t view ACHs as a critical piece of the system, then VBP and population health management could fail, and alternately if ACHs don’t view commercial systems as a critical piece of their work, then health transformation fails.” We’re all being incentivized to manage the health of our populations, and this session aims to paint the picture of how we create a bridge between all systems, regardless of payer, and ACHs.
