editorial By Lynn Nace ACO Still a Buzz? You betcha. In the world of healthcare reform, it doesn’t take much to identify that the move toward accountable care organization (ACO) is a trend still in its infancy. In fact, in a recent CHIME/EMC survey, “Health Check: Healthcare CIOs Prescribe Change,” it was revealed that currently 17% of respondents said they are part of an ACO (which is up by about 15% from nearly 2 years ago), and 37% said they expect to be part of one in the next 3 years. What stage is your hospital in? This issue of Executive Insight explores lessons learned, expected—and perhaps more importantly, unexpected—outcomes, strategies to identify the return on investment (yes, this is possible!), and “next steps” to improve patient care. Not only are some of the executives contributing to this issue “there” when it comes to ACO participation, but they’re actually taking various measures a step further by identifying even more sophisticated technologies— business and clinical intelligence tools— that are allowing them to pre-determine gaps in patient care and predict when medical attention is needed to avoided a readmission or more costly care. Executive Insight also takes our ACO coverage a step further by offering a dedicated ACO Resource Center, sponsored by Beckman Coulter, that includes webinars, interviews, articles and daily news that’s updated daily to provide you with up-to-the-minute content related to this dynamic environment. There you’ll find, for example, “ACOs Take a Leap of Faith,” In the world of healthcare reform, it doesn’t take much to identify that the move toward accountable care organization (ACO) is a trend still in its infancy. in which Richard J. Gilfillan, MD, director of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, notes, “The transition to ACOs will affect many segments of industry within healthcare and throughout the U.S. economy. Those companies already heavily invested in healthcare may need a new way of envisioning solutions. So you might find people interested in creating radiology machines thinking differently or you might find people building software or hardware that realize they need to change the way they are thinking about the future.” How is your hospital thinking differently?
