Heritage California ACO to Participate as Medicare Pioneer Accountable Care Organization. New Model Will Offer Better Care To Beneficiaries Through Partnership With Medicare.
Heritage California ACO (HCACO), an affiliate of Heritage Provider Network (HPN), has been selected to participate in the Pioneer Accountable Care Organization (ACO) model, a transformative new initiative sponsored by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Innovation Center.
Through the Pioneer ACO Model, HCACO will work with CMS to provide Medicare beneficiaries with higher quality care, while reducing growth in Medicare expenditures through enhanced care coordination.
"I am very pleased Heritage Provider Network has been selected to participate in the Pioneer Accountable Care Organization model sponsored by the CMS Innovation Center," said Dr. Richard Merkin, President and CEO of Heritage Provider Network. "For over 30 years, we at HPN have encouraged and supported an accountable care model of healthcare- a model predicated on providing care that is of the highest quality, that improves the health of our members, and that lowers their healthcare costs. We look forward to continuing these practices with this innovative program."
