The World Congress Leadership Summit on Accountable Care Organizations (ACO) will convene providers and other stakeholders to discuss strategies for integrating and participating in an Accountable Care Organization framework on a local level that offers shared savings payments for improving the quality of care and costs. Real-world, case study examples of organizations currently participating in ACO pilots will be featured on the agenda and the Summit faculty will offer concrete, specific steps that others must take throughout the process of planning and implementation.
