Since the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), both quality and accountability have been brought to the forefront of the American healthcare system through the introduction of the accountable care organization (ACO) model. Consequently, life science companies have had to customize their approach to the nuanced needs of ACOs. Similarly, integrated delivery networks (IDNs) are equally diverse and have their own unique set of needs to provide low-cost, high-impact healthcare to particular populations — and their future is rife with the promise of opportunity.

The 9th Partnering with ACOs & IDNs Summit continues to set the gold standard for participants seeking proven strategies and vital information regarding partnering with ACOs and IDNs.

Given the uncertainty of the future of ACOs, there has never been a better time to attend the summit. ACOs will continue to provide high-quality care, in whatever form they take. Additionally, pharmaceutical, medical device and biotech companies have already been missing out if they haven’t begun planning for, if not implementing, partnerships with IDNs. Manufacturers are tasked with learning how to best contract with and sell to these evolving systems to ensure the success of their products.

Companies should be poised to shift and adapt to new regulations. Adjusting to a fast-changing healthcare ecosystem will be paramount to your success. New opportunities and new challenges must be recognized and addressed. Your company, ACOs and IDNs — not to mention the populations they serve — are counting on you to have the skills, knowledge and perspective necessary to forge mutually beneficial partnerships with ACOs and IDNs.

Leaders from manufacturing, healthcare and payers assemble at the annual Partnering with ACOs & IDNs Summit to share strategies and crucial information regarding forming mutually beneficial partnerships to improve patient outcomes. Life science leaders will return to work with an augmented tool kit, crucial updates on trends and projections, and key insights from a community of like-minded learners. This event also features an interactive think tank, where attendees will hear from IDN leaders and ACO executives on what they are looking for in a partner.
