WHAT IS AN ACO?

ACME Health Partners ACO is a group of six Federally Qualified Health Care Centers (FQHC) that have united to fulfill the missions of each and accomplish the tasks set forth by the Centers for Medicare Services (CMS) for an ACO.

An Accountable Care Organization (ACO) is a group of doctors, hospitals, and/or other health care providers who work together to improve the quality and experience of care you get.

These organizations help your doctors and other health care providers understand your health history, and talk to one another about your care and your health care needs. This can save you time and money by avoiding repeated tests and unneeded appointments. It may make it easier to spot potential problems before they become more serious — like drug interactions that can happen if one provider isn’t aware of what another has prescribed.

ACO providers communicate with each other and partner with you in making health care decisions.  They share information and may use Electronic Health Records (EHRs), so you’ll likely have fewer repeated medical tests and may save time on paperwork.
