Question 2: How do we move forward? How do we as providers better manage and increase accountability for the full continuum of patient care? How do we provide better health care, better heath care experience, and better value to the communities we serve?

Question 2: How do we move forward? Providers Community Partners Payers Patients
15
Question 2: How can you help? How can community based programs and service organizations like Meals on Wheels assist ACO’s in population health?
16
Question 3: How can you help? 1.We must change the paradigm of what care is compensable by positioning Meals on Wheels and other community based partners as vital contributors in the provision of patient care. 2.To do this, we must focus on understanding the strategic niche of Meals on Wheels in population health management. 3.We must design service level agreements between Meals on Wheels and ACOs that apply this value to meet the needs of patients and providers… and at scale. 4.Through data, we must continuously evaluate the value provided by Meals on Wheels directly to the bottom line of managing population (payer) expenditures. Meals on Wheels and other community based partners ARE providers of care…and must be demonstrated as such to the payer community.
17
Question 3: How can you help? As an ACO…what are we looking for in contracts with community based partners? What provides competitive advantage? Seamless IT integration. Solid process for referring patients and communicating status. Breadth, quality and scalability of services performed. Timeliness (from referral to patient engagement). Patient satisfaction. Simplicity. Contribution to managing patient populations. Providers Community Partners Payers Patients
