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

Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.

"A lack of awareness about the accountable care organization model is the greatest barrier to ACO engagement, according to 18 percent of HIN survey respondents with no plans to join or launch an ACO. This webinar will provide key information and strategies for meeting efficiency, quality and cost targets via the ACO model."
