Why participate in an ACO?
We think it's the right thing to do. We are all interested in quality and saving money.The ACO will benefit if we can demonstrate that we are improving on agreed upon quality measures, including patient satisfaction.

- Education on quailty care for our providers and clinic staffs
- Reporting on patients who are due for preventative health screenings and services
