The healthcare industry is consistently evolving, searching for ways to improve quality, reduce costs, and prioritize patient well-being. There enters the ACO Reach model, a game-changer that’s shaking things up in a positive way. But what exactly is it, and how is it revolutionizing how we deliver care?ACO, short for Accountable Care Organization, brings together healthcare providers — think doctors, hospitals, and specialists — to work as a team. This team takes responsibility for the overall care of a defined group of Medicare beneficiaries. The ‘REACH’ stands for Realizing Equity, Access, and Community Health. This emphasizes the model’s focus on ensuring everyone has access to quality care, especially in underserved communities.
