A recent study in Psychiatric Services analyzed data from the 2017–2018 National Survey of ACOs, in which 399 respondents answered questions on integrated care strategies. 76% of these reported using at least one integrated care strategy in at least one location. 70% used care managers, followed by use of a patient registry (37%) and colocation of a primary care clinician in a specialty mental health setting (30%).

ACO Implementation A Team Sport
In order to succeed in an ACO, all
participants in the facility need to be aware of the goals and
objectives of joining an ACO, and each individual needs to
understand what role they play in the success of the ACO.
Members of the team should be engaged both in the design of the
implementation and the potential reward for participation.
Consequently, staff and providers need to believe it will add
value both to their patients' lives and to theirs. |
