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

Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.

"Typically, it can be a challenge to get physicians to buy in to new initiatives. Shared savings contracts are one way to recruit and reward high-quality (and penalize poor-quality) plans and providers for participation in medical home initiatives. Grand Junction will be sharing the lessons it has learned as an early adopter of this financial model."
