If Not ACOs, What?
Last month, authors Clayton Christensen, Jeffrey Flier, and Vineeta Vijayaraghavan predicted the death of Accountable Care Organizations (ACOS) in their The Wall Street Journal article Christensen, Flier and Vijayaraghavan: The Coming Failure of 'Accountable Care'. I usually don't give these kinds of articles a second look (I keep thinking Rumors Of The Death Of Managed Care).
But, I am familiar with the work of both Christensen (see Market Repositioning For Specialty Organizations all members) and Vijayaraghavan (see Disruptive Innovation In Integrated Care Delivery Systems: The Market Trends We Were Surprised Not To See)—and find them both thought provoking . . .
