Increasing Patient Attribution Rates to Reach the Best ACO Efficiency

Medvision-solutions05 Mar, 2024Health

In the rapidly evolving landscape of healthcare, accountable care organizations (ACOs) play a pivotal role in delivering high-quality, cost-effective care. One of the key factors that contributes to the success of an aco reach model is the patient attribution rate, which is the percentage of patients assigned to the ACO for coordinated care. A higher patient attribution rate not only enhances the ACO's ability to improve patient outcomes but also boosts overall efficiency. In this blog, we will explore strategies to increase patient attribution rates, aligning with the goal of optimizing ACO efficiency. Patient attribution is the process of assigning patients to an aco-reach model based on their primary care provider (PCP). This assignment allows the ACO to take responsibility for the patient's healthcare outcomes and costs. A higher patient attribution rate means more patients are under the ACO's care, providing ample opportunities for proactive and coordinated healthcare.
