Summary, Audio and Transcripts from Oct 5, 2010 Workshop on ACOs
FTC, CMS and OIG held a workshop on Accountable Care Organizations on October 5, 2010 to hear from all stakeholders.
Taft Stettinius & Holllister LLC’s summary report of the meeting on Lexology Oct 13, 2010, said ”based upon the opening comments of Don Berwick, the Administrator of CMS, FTC Chairman Jon Liebowitz, and HHS Inspector General Dan Levinson, it is clear that the agencies believe that ACOs present a significant opportunity to meet what Administrator Berwick described as the ‘triple aim’ of truly integrated health care: better care for individual patients and better health for the general population, at a lower per capita cost of achieving both without diminishing quality.”
