April 21, 2011 Webinar to Analyze CMS's New Medicare Shared Savings Rule, Advise ACOs on Implementation

QUOTE ATTRIBUTABLE TO MELANIE MATTHEWS, HIN EXECUTIVE VP AND COO:

"The industry is breathing easier with the Medicare Shared Savings rules on the table for comment, but the reality is that a commercial ACO might prove more attractive and less restrictive to both payors and providers. This upcoming webinar will define opportunities for healthcare organizations to participate in and profit from commercial ACO activity."
