The purpose of accountable care organizations (ACOs) is to
provide coordinated high-quality care to Medicare beneficiaries.
Beneficiaries are attributed to ACOs based on past claims data.
When the beneficiary is attributed to an ACO, they are responsible
for that patient’s healthcare expenditures.
Is it fair that ACOs are held accountable for their
attributed beneficiaries’ healthcare costs when the beneficiaries
do not have to follow their physicians’ advice?
