Accountable care organizations top a long list of should-be priorities for the health care industry, a new survey finds, though by reviewing some numbers, you wouldn’t know it.
Despite health care finance executives saying there will be a “renewed focus on developing accountable-care partnerships”—with half saying it should be their top priority—just 9 percent say they are currently focusing on it.
Though ACOs are “allowing health care businesses to share risk, help lower costs and improve quality,” only 56 percent agree that a strong accountable care organization network will trim spending and improve the bottom lines of clinics and hospitals.
