“Accountable care, coordinated care, paying for the value of services
delivered -- and not the volume -- is the direction we should be moving
our health system. ACOs are working to make that a reality, and data
increasingly show ACOs are reducing Medicare spending.”
- Clif Gaus ScD, CEO and President, NAACOS.

"According to a survey from Willis Towers Watson, 38% of
employers say they’re considering opening a health center at their
workplace location by 2020, up from today’s 26%. 26% plan to offer
near-site health centers by 2020, up threefold from 8% today."
