Summit on Shared Accountability

“While the policy discussion in Washington is focused on the need for delivery system reform, health plans and their provider partners are already making it happen across the country. America’s health insurance plans are implementing delivery and payment models that are working in the marketplace and showing tangible results.”

— Karen Ignagni, President and CEO, AHIP

On October 18, 2011 at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center in Washington, D.C., AHIP will host its Summit on Shared Accountability showcasing the most innovative payment reform models that regional and national health plans have implemented to achieve the three-part aim. Health plan leaders and their provider partners will demonstrate a variety of approaches to improving care quality and reducing costs from ACO-contracting to patient-centered medical homes and bundled payments. The Summit will highlight key program features, successes, and lessons learned that can help enhance understanding of alternative pathways to building a sustainable, high-quality health care system.
