At The National Health Policy Conference, The Latest On ACOs



December 29th, 2010
by Chris Fleming

Many provisions of the Affordable Care Act are designed to promote new health care models that will deliver better care more efficiently. At the 2011 National Health Policy Conference (NHPC), the Urban Institute’s Robert Berenson will lead a discussion of “accountable care organizations” (ACOs), one of the most important of these models. Panelists will discuss the eagerly awaited federal rules governing ACOs, which are expected to be issued early next year.

ACOs are only one of the many aspects of health reform that will be covered at the NHPC, which will be held on Monday, February 7 and Tuesday, February 8 in Washington D.C.  The conference, cosponsored by Health Affairs and AcademyHealth, will feature top administration, congressional, and state policymakers, as well as key policy experts and industry and consumer leaders.

You can view a complete agenda and register for the NHPC  at the conference Website.
